Turbo Guys--Could this be my problem? I originally had my WG and BOV hooked up to a vacuum source off of the back of my intake. When I took it to get tuned it didnt make boost. The owner hooked the WG staight up to the BOV and it made boost..(only was going to what WG spring allowed it too) I hooked a MBC up to that line and it didnt seem to do anything (still made boost but I wasnt able to controlle it like i should with a boost controller). Can a MBC not work with the way the vacuum line is hooked up? Has anyone ever heard of this?
MBC hookup-- BOV to MBC
MBC to top of WG (with a vent)
2nd port on MBC went to side port on WG
HELP PLEASE!!! I WANT TO RUN MORE BOOST THAN THE SPING IS ALLOWING ME TO!

Its an HKS 35mm....Where are you tapping for a boost source? Would I run my bov to the same place then?

Which source on the manifold are you using?

There is a line that runs next to the line that feeds your fuel rail. When your intake creates a vacume, that lines pulls air out of your gas tank. It is not neccessary. That line runs to a solenoid and from that solenoid runs a 90 that goes into your intake. Pull off the 90 and tap your BOV at the intake manifold. Run a 'T' from that tap to the side of your WG and run your BC to the top of your WG.
