When I had my boost gauge hooked to the manifold and the wastegate hooked to the compresser housing, I was seeing 5 lbs on the gauge.
When I hooked the wastegate to the same intake port as the boost gauge, I lost 2lbs on the guage. I then had to hook up the manual controller to turn it back to 5lbs, this is when I noticed a power increase over the previous 5lbs.

Next time I go to the track, I will run it the way it is now, and then disconnect the manual controller, and hook the wastegate back up to the compresser outlet and see exactly what diffence it makes.

Geez, yet another voice of reason over there lost. To be honest, I have not been hanging out there much anymore short of NM chapter happenings. I rarely go into the threads due to the constant squabbling and bickering that goes on
On a side note, I will be in the Bay area from 2/26 thru 3/5. I won't have my truck as I will be going via Portland ( again ). Anything happening the weekend of 2/26 around there? Drags, meetings, etc. Would love to me you and Chris99 to check out the rides.
