fyi, on most boost controllers the more you tighten it down the higher the setting for boost. Loosen the screw and you get a lower boostsetting.

The dial has it labled which way to + and -, tighter down, the less boost. So since I hooked it up from the charge piping, it works like it is supposed to! BUT.... I plumbed the exhuast into the intake nipple and I do not really see more than 19psi, maybe 20, I run out of dial. So I can turn the dial down, and still see 19 until I get to a certain point.....

So my thought it this: I should unplug it from the intake, cap off the intake nipple so the air freely gets released from the exhuast hose, rather it being plumbed in-line with the incoming air which would cause resistance.... I will try this in the morning.

Thanks for the thoughts thus far!

It would be worth a shot. Venting it doesnt harm anything

Well we called Turbo Smart today, and they said that on Euros, the in-cabins do not work and they are actually looking at discontinuing them. Apparently, the lines are too long and you cannot hit desired boost unless you have a Japanese car... So we yanked it out, and put an underhood in until my dual stage comes in next week.

Yeah, they are like 2mm larger. You could always just run a thinner line to the boost controler.
