Boost issues..

[Swifty1638]

Well, It does run rich. I am waiting on mike to make me a new pipe to move the maft towards the intake. how can I perform a leakdown test? Just spray the shit with a soapy mist of water, and find the bubbles? I got on it today, and when i hit about 17 psi, the car felt and sounded as if i had hit the rev limiter. I was pretty sure i didn't though. I turned it down to 15 psi or so. I know that I want 20 or so, so what can a big 16g take? The motor is built by mike, and I am trusting this guy's work. I hope to take the car back to him, in hopes he can drill, tap, and place my egt probe for me. I am also waiting on that fuel rail from him( kory dropped off the sending unit for my gauge). Anyone have any other ideas? Those 3-4 vacuum "ports" on the top of the intake, right behind the biss screw (idler screw) are all plugged of. Basically, a hose, routed from one port, and 180'd into the next. Something tells me that that's not a good idea. I also thought the boost gauge was supposed to be tapped from there.
