K guys, I just got a new joe p mbc and installed it today. I have the boost source nipple hooked up to the turbo outlet on the compressor housing and the other on the nipple of the wastegate. For some reason I cannot controll boost whatsoever and I am hitting 20 PSI everytime. Any reason as to why this is happening? I have heard that with a mbc installed this way boost can change with the weather?? (it is like 20 degress and cold as fukk here) I am going to try to "T" the boost source line to the BOV line next and hopefully this will work. Also I unplugged the boost source line on the mbc and felt abosolutely no vacumm. Unplugged the bov line and there was vacumm.
 
When I had my MBC hooked up to the BOV line I boosted 12psi all the time no matter which way I turned it. Then I put it the way you have it and it worked perfectly. Maybe you have the lines hooked up to the boost controller wrong.
