wont hold boost

i think you missed a line somewhere . even a little tiny hose on the opposite side of the engine will cause this boost leak

u only run 4psi thru ur car? u said i turned it all the way up which is equal to 4 pai. 4lbs in a set up like that?

he said he turned it up a full turn, not all the way up.. a full turn seems to be equal to 4 psi.

what i would do is with the car running, open the hood and either have someone rev it, or you can do it yourself with the throttle linkage, and rev it till it boost and listen for a leak. if you cant hear one then find the vacuum line diagram on the tsrm and check all the lines. let us know hoow it goes.
