your MAF is in the back? put it back near the TB.... you need to reference your wastegate to the brake booster or you can overboost the motor and blow it up. the BOV should be referenced from the same spot as the w/g. is your pcm tuned at all for boost? you even shouldnt be driving it at all if it isnt tuned properly.

I am no turbo guru, but your maf should be close to the TB (not the rear). Your car needs to be tuned for boost, and it is dangerous to run it untuned.
