Tonight I tried putting my manual boost controller in so I could go from 7 psi to 10 psi. But it just kept wanting to boost way more so I had to keep letting off right away. I backed it out all the way and the boost controller is good and it's a Halman. I was told that the top port on the Tial waste gate you don't have to plumb anything into it. It didn't work that way, on tials site the diagram they show you are suppose to tie it into both. I tried that and it still didn't work. Any ideas?

Here is the diagram from Tial's site. I tried it this way also but it wanted to run way more boost than I wanted even with the boost controller all the way out.

Perhaps you put the manual boost cotroller in the wrong way. When i was younger i did that on my t25 and it caused your probems. Just switch the vaccum hoses around and test it out! But just be careful and let off if it boosts to high.

It is hooked up right, the boost controller anyways.
