Boost controller not working

[Boosted DSM 32]

Went to adjust my boost controller the other day for the first time since i had the car and when i go to turn it up or down it doesnt do anything? its weird but it stays right at 15 lbs of boost until redline the 2 vacuum lines are hooked up and everything is secure does anyone know why it might not be working?

BTW.. the boost controller is a turboXS

Is it hooked up properly?

ya i dont see whats hooked up wrong.. one line is coming off the wastegate on the turbo and the other line is coming off the nipple on the pipe coming off the turbo all the lines are tight and on the right way it seems idk whats goin on i dont see how it could be failing?

Found it.

In all seriousness, can you borrow another BC? (Punctuate...)

Oh god, I have the same boost controller as you do, and they are a serious pain to use. They are a "bleeder" style controller and are difficult to get setup. I have had very little luck with mine. It does kinda sorta do its job, but it has to have like a T in one of the lines to a different vacuum source...ugh

Haha soo im guessing those BC's are no good?? hmm i think i might be able to scavenge up one and test it out and see if that fixes my problem

I've never had luck with them, nor TurboXS BOVs.

Same here, 2 out of 3 were bad. I'll be sticking with Hallman from now on.
