Is anyone running one of these? Have you experienced any problems?

I've connected mine and with both nobs turned down, it still seems to want to go higher than stock - boost would still go over 10psi if I let it, but I obvuoulsy don't. I've replaced the vacuum lines with new ones, and double checked them, making sure that there was no obvious vacuum leaks. The only thing I didn't check was the rubber elbows that connect at the wastegate - are the rubber elbows known for leaking? Also, when I disconnect the mbc and return it to stock, the boost levels return to a stock 7psi - Generally, this would lead me to believe that it would be a vacuum leak, but because the lines have been replaced, I'm at a loss as to what it could be?

The unit is brand new, so I'm sure that there is nothing wrong with the mbc.

Cheers.

the only thing i can think of is to make sure you clamp or zip tie all the hose ends to make sure they do not leak. I was having a problem with my BOV and it turned out the vacuum hose wasnt sealing correctly around the nipple
