Default Eboost 2 problem?

Im running an eboost 2 on my TT car with twin selenoids...

Ive been plaing with it for a couple of weeks now, Ive noticed that my mechanical boost gage shakes between +1 or -1 of the set point always, I verified this on the dyno while we charted the boost pressure, swinging up and down about 1 psi through the pull.... the mechanical gauge almost looks liek it is vibrating violently lol.

I suspect I ahve my two selenoids wired oposite of each other causing this to happen....... anyone have experience with this phenomena?

its not the sensativity or the gate pressure .


thanks

For external gates it is recommended that you run two solenoids.
