Well the canister works it sucks the rod up when you start the car and it push's it down when you rev it up. THe vaccum was cracked but it still worked. Could it be that valve on the supercharger.

And if it dosnt rev up then what might be the problem
If there are no vacume leaks? And you're not getting full boost?
Not anything that else that I can think of.
WoW ok. Dose those just wear out after miles or not.
Yeah If you have a vacume leak at the canister (BBV) it's usually at the rubber boot. What happens is it dry rots and causes a leak.
Ya it was cracked so just get a new hose and go from there i dont want to keep screwing around with just cutting the crack off and putting it back on.
Correct if the hose is cracked replace it with a fresh one. If the BBV is bad then just replace that.
What is the BBV
It's the black plastic canister we've been talking about lol....
But it stands for blow by valve.
OH ok thanks i will let you konw what we come up with.
bbv = boost bypass valve
well all that is on hold until at least tuesday. The fuel pump went out of it now. I think due to that fuel filter being pluged for so long that pump was working double time. Its just one thing after another with that car.
but once you get it right it will be like a new car and you wont have to worry about those things anytime soon.
good luck
GOD i hope not. That car has been a pain in my a$$ the last year. I am like his personal mechanic. But hey i will do it for how long he needs it being brothers i help out.
