boost controller or something else?

[osnoozeo]

ok so i was trying to get my boost controller setup up a lil higher right! and then all the sudden after pulling hoses n putting on new mbc my glowshift boost guage is stuck at 0psi no vacum no boost when slamming the gas, is it the gauge or something esle, cause i hooked up the ecmlink v3 and it shows me gettn 10psi, and my idle is at like 1300rmp, wich is funny cause i have it set at 800rpm in ecmlink, is something off here, or is the gauge fried?

it was a glowshift white 7 color boost gauge, and i have my delphi 850cc injectors so i thought i should be able to put boost a lil higher now, that its all set in with ecmlink! any ideas

Sounds like the line to the boost gauge is disconnected somewhere...

where did you tap for pressure for your boost gauge?

im not sure, its been working since i bought this car a few months ago, but i checked the T where the other 2 lines were on, and they were there, so maybe it came off some where else, but i got lights and everything else on gauge, just no vacum, and it only started when i unhooked the hoses to goto this other mbc, cause ive been having issues with the mbc's there not working right, i will check in the morning to see if one of the lines came off. thats my only guess cause it was working just fine. cept for the fact that these 2 mbcs i have that i bought off ebay suck ass.

i do know the one blue line coming from wastegate is on controller, but i dont think that is the one that came off, and the other was on T with 2 other lines, so i guess in the morning when i can actually see, i will check it out!

did you blow your turbo? do a boost leak and check you bov

 

[osnoozeo]

na turbo is fine, i just went out with a flashlight and followed the hose thats in back of gauge, and found it hangin under intake manifold, here it was just hanging there attached to nothing, i guess the high boost pressure pushed it right off, now i have no idea where its hooked to, my guess is either under intake, anyone know, thats where the hose was though and its not very long, so it goes some where in that area... i couldnt really see much with the flashlight

Use small zip tie to hold the vacuum line on the guage. I have to zip tie all vacuum lines or they blow off due to high boost.

 

[osnoozeo]

got it!!!! it was the line that went into the T from intake to fuel regulator, i remembered there was a clear hose there, came in and was hold on, know that that line, i had to move it when i put the new fuel rail n injectors in, pluged it right back in started it up, and wala, thanks guys!

now i need to figure out how to fix these 2 boost controllers, cause they aint working right, anyone know how to fix the high performance 10$ boost controllers from ebay, with the knobs at the top, this one use to work great, i dunno what happen to it
