If this problem has already been discussed, I apologize but I couldnt find it. So heres the story.

I just installed the greddy s type BOV and I connected the lower nipple of the bov to the line running from my MBC to the wastegate actuator. I meant to tee into the other line running from the MBC to the turbo outlet but I made a mistake and got the wrong line (I think I am going to blame bad lighting on this).

So, connecting the BOV to the wrong end of the MBC might be my problem but anyway, I went for a drive and my psi spiked to around 20 psi in 2nd gear and heard a popping noise(this might be normal when you spike to such a high psi on the t25 but since Ive never done it, I dont know). I came back, adjusted my MBC down and after that I couldnt get my psi to go much above 6-8 before the turbo released pressure. So, Ive tried adjusting my MBC and my BOV a bit, and it doesnt seem to be changing too much. Once, my car even stalled and 3rd gear sometimes feels a bit shaky.

Does anyone have any suggestions??
 
You reversed the lines. Top of Greddy should got to line on MBC, bottom Greddy barb should go to turbo outlet elbow. But that pop may mean you blew your turbo out. Try chaging the lines, then putting the bov to full 'soft' and go from there. RRE has instructions.
