well i think i have the solution to my problem already..but just seein if theres any other ideas..i installed my fmic today and it went ok but now i cant boost anything.. my hks bov that is came with is cracked and i assume the boost if just leakin right outta there and thats causin my car to run shitty.. but i also ran some code somethin like heat circuit sensor or something like that.. anyone got anything on either of these?

i had same issue with my hiboost when i put it on other day... i had a blown off pipe dont know how but the intercooler to turbo pipe blew off first time i got on it.. i fixed that issue and came up with another issue of only running 6psi now when i was unning 7-8 befoe i installed it

it is hiboost.. but i cant even run a pound right now.. and im almost 100% sure its because the bov that it came with has a huge crack in it..i made sure all the connections were ok..i cant see it being anything else

i just installed my hiboost kit and im not having any problems with my greddy type rs bov. i heard the old hks bov sucked and had problems so i opted to upgrade to the greddy. if ur bov is cracked, email juan and im sure he'll help you out.

yup if ur not makin a pound u have a boost leak. makes the car stutter and run like poo. if u had a pipe off ur car would stall most likely and u wouldnt be able to drive at all. thats what mine did at least when i popped off a pipe.
