[just5_0]

Hello i am trying to hook a boost gauge in my 98 and i hook the vacuum line up at the fuel pressure solenoid but when it is running it is below the 0 boost like -10 and when i give it some gas it juss goes straight to 0 or the next line like 2. Do i have it hook up right? I hope iam posting in the right spot if not ### except my appoligies. And if someone can help i would greatly appreciate it alot thank's.

That exactly where i installed the line coming from my boost gauge. Do you think my turbo isnt boosting? I can hear the blowoff valve when i rev it up but the boost gauge only reads like 2 pounds of boost or a lil more.

That's normal. You probably have leaks. Unless you have cams. Your vac/ hg should be around the 17-19 mark. What boost gauge is this.

You're not going to build boost by revving. The engine has to have load.

This.
When my car was stock it wouldn't build boost just revving it. You will only be able to do that with launch control of some sort.

Take the car for a drive and you will see if build boost.
