    Got my car running today after I swapped the L67 in. Started it up, the boost gauge lights up now but doesnt show any boost. What could the problem be?

    are you sure everything is hooked up correctly as far as the gauge goes? where did you tap into the vacuum line?

    the stock boost gauge should still register, just not peak at all.

    Im using the stock gauge until I get my HUD pod, aeroforce and boost gauge.

    Also, For the L67 swap kit, I dont need to wire in the BBV right? If I wanted to I could but dont really need to?

    do you have the vacuum line hooked up to the bottom of the BBV? do you have an l67 PCM? what is your setup?

    All vac lines are hooked up, have a L67 PCM, drove it home today and the boost gauge went up 2 bars and stuck there even when I wasnt into boost.
