Default Vf stage 2 tial bov+boost gauge vacume line routing

Hey guys im having trouble on routing the vacume lines for my tial bov and boost gauge. I have already looked at the other diy threads on the bov mod and still cant figure it out. Upon startup the eml light came on and my boost gauge was reading 16lbs of boost? If anyone can help i would appreciate it .

I tapped into the line coming from where the fuel rail is.

You might have a vacuum leak somewhere. I would recheck your lines. Also, you may want to try tapping your gauge into the booster line, before the check valve.

Hey guys found my problem one of the throttle body clamps was in the way of the throttle linkage not allowing the throttle bodies open all the way
