yea i made sure i put the retrictor pill into the new pipe from the old one and put it back on the compresser side . i know there is a swicth inside the car that controls the the box that the pipe goes to like its a electronic boost control or somthing . tbh im thinking of taking it of and running the pipe straight to the boost solinoid like it should be from the factory

thanks for that im going to take it off and run the pipe straight to the boost solinoid like it is as standard . manily as i dont use it any way and it sounds like its more to go wrong and id rather just have it maaped to one boost level
