Problems after installing PR FMIC

[ludenaa]

Ok fellas, I just finished installing the PR FMIC on my '95 Eagle Talon Tsi FWD and I must say what I PITA this whole process from beggining to end has been.
With that being said, as I apprarently thought I was finally finished I took the vehicle out for a spin, first gear pulled so hard however, the BOV went off as I was stepping on the throttle which I thought was unusual and the vehicle bogged. I drove a couple of blocks down on 1st gear as the vehicle felt like it was being deprived of fuel until it died on my in the middle of the road. I managed to start it right up and drove back to my home at 5 mph. I noticed that the coupler that goes from the J pipe with not nipple to the turbo itself was at a 90 degree angle, presumming not air to flow through. I also noticed that the coupler near the IC came loose and off track as well. At this point I decied to cut down the J pipe at the bottom of the "J" to allow more clearance between the turbo and the frame of the vehicle to ultimately allow the coupler to have more room to breath, it worked out perfectly and I managed to get a a nice bent off the coupler connecting the J pipe and turbo. I took it out for a spin and the exact same thing happen going on first gear the BOV unexpectedly went off, lost power and vehicle died once again as previous scenerio. I went home jacked at car up for the 30th time and noticed another couper which came loose. I have reconnected it and decided not to take it out for a spin until I figure out what's going on here. I can possibly think of a few things I'm doing wrong however, after reading many posts here I might have pin pointed it. I have the BOV top nipple (bigger nipple) connected to the intake manifold and the other bigger end connected to the dump tube from the intake. What am I missing here? I never used the "T" shape connecter which was provided in the box and not sure if that's even required as I am runnig the STOCK 1995 Eagle Talon Turbo. I believe is also not mandatory with a STOCK turbo to have a nipled coming out the J pipe, What am I doing wrong? any advised will be greatly appreciated as I need to get thie vehicle out on the wrong. I must also add that the valves tap like crazy after this install.
I apologize for the essay

The kit comes with a pipe for stock turbos that will require a U-coupler to work (sold separately) it should not have a nipple on it, as the T25 compressor housing has a nipple.

So this bottom pipe which I currently have connected to the turbo is the wrong pipe i'm using? The rubber coupler is a 90 degree shape not a U shape.

That should be the right pipe, the wrong one for you would be the one with a shorter L section and a nipple on it.

so I've been using the correct L shape all along why such a hard time with fitment?

The J pipe does not need a nipple. That is for your boost controller. You can use the T fitting and use the vacuum line running from the intake manifold to your BOV.

J-pipe's don't come with nipples, the pipe it connects to does, otherwise how do you plan on feeding boost to your wastegate?

Yes, the L-pipe without the nipple is the correct one, the one with a nipple is for J-pipe applications, it is your boost source for the wastegate, the T-25 has it's own source.

ok I thought I was going crazy for a moment. I guess my only problem now is boost leak, i'm going to retighten the crarp out of the couplers. Any other recommendations?
