negative boost, video of vac hoses. need help
 
Hello so my friend and i installed the zzp l36 super charge kit, install went ok just having trouble with my boost its always in the negative unless I'm going like 70 mph then i see the boost going to maybe 2 if I'm lucky.

Has anyone did this mod? I'm guessing its something to do with th vacuum lines ..what a bummer. Aside from horrible instructions and a blank install cd from zzp i am honestly disappointed about the lack of tech support and the fact it takes hours and hours for a reply from them via email. It's been a week like this and I can't figure it out.
Does anyone have a pic i can look at to see wat i did wrong
Also here is a video to see wats plugged into what

the gauge im using is an aeroforce interceptor



thanks

You'll never read boost with an Aeroforce gauge on your car - at least with the L36 MAP sensor in it now. The L36 MAP doesn't read positive pressure (boost). The PCM has no way of seeing 'boost', and all the Aeroforce gauge does it read out values the PCM is seeing.

If you want to see boost, you'll need to either swap to an L67 style MAP (not necessary) or use a regular old boost gauge and tap into a post-blower vacuum line (easier).

Even with my car being an L67, I don't often see positive boost, gotta step on it to get boost
