I used the test port and was able to get the correct fitting from ATP when i picked up the wastegate. Using this port, there is still a bit of lag. I think its because the boost signal is coming from so far down stream from the WG. Not sure if im gonna tap something closer to the WG. Or maybe use a boost controller.
I figured out my boost issue. The Overboost protection sensor (or what have you) was clogged. Therefore the boost signal for the ALDA was getting interrupted. Now i have a steady 12psi boost and great acceleration.
Questions: Is it bad to unplug the electrical connection to the airflow meter/airbox flap?
