cut the vac by intake manifold & install T Fitting.
the first problem is when i went to RRE they attach their gauge to the fuel pressure regulator --->>> Boost Guage installation. evo 8-img_1136.jpg
and they manage to set the boost about 19lbs & it holds
but the one i did it only shows 15lbs.
what can be the problem?

sorry about my grammar/english =)
thanks for advices/help in advance
