    Ok, so i just finished up my alcohol install, and finally started driving my car again. The car has no alcohol running to it at the moment since i don't have the controller wired to a 12v ign source yet. Everything else is wired and installed. So i go today to drive my car and was missing the feeling of putting my foot into it after not driving it for 3 weeks. I put my foot into it and got one bar on the DIC boost gauge at partial and all the way up to full throttle. Then on the way home tonight i did the same thing and have zero boost at all.

    The car feels just as strong as it does with the gauge showing full. No idling issues whatsoever, and the BBV seems to open and shut like it should and not stick. I did however tap into the B (green) connector on the MAP sensor for a MAP input on my alcohol controller. I don't know if that has anything to do with anything seeing as how the alky kit isnt actually powered on at all yet. I've ran over the vac lines quickly for leaks, but will further inspect tomorrow. I'm just puzzled. It seems to run just as strong, but maybe I havent driven it in so long that i cant tell.

    Suggestions?
