I'd check for simple things like the pill still being in the hose, or even test it without the mbc just to make sure it doesn't spike period

my mistake... i just took the intake and uicp out of the car. the shop left one of the vac line from the stock actuator hooked up into the hks intake. the vacume lines are set up as follows:
waste gate to side port of the mbc.
pressure nipple on turbo to bottom of mbc.
is the pill on the top hose or the bottom hose comming of the stock actuator?
i have replaced the rear bulbs and my voltage is back to normal.
13.5v at idle
13.8v to 14.1v under load

I could be wrong but isn't that backwards? If it is I'm not sure how the spring is going to react with pressure on the other side maybe it would just not let any pressure through *shrugs*
Far as the pill i believe its on the bottom hose of that picture with the red arrow showing the front of the car.
