BSTC Boost Controller???'s

[my1stgn]

I just installed this controller a month or so ago and tried to mess around with it. I found no matter where the knob is ajusted to, it really doesnt do anything for the boost. At WOT the boost spikes up to around 17PSI then settles at around 15-16 PSI. I set the boost controller to max then to the minumum setting and still the same thing. The light does come on in the BSTC when I go WOT like its trying to control boost but it doesnt. Anything Im doing wrong? Thanks guys! Also Im running a TT Chip if that helps. Thanks!

What volts do you have it activate at?

Its all set to the "stock" settings so I think it kicks in at around 4.2V maybe, Ill look tomorrow for sure.

That should be ok, you need to review your wiring.

Actually I just checked it with the key on/engine off. I pressed the accelerator until the light came on on the boost controller. I looked at the Trans Gen II and it showed around 2.5Volts before the light came. Any reason why I cant adjust boost with this controller? Thanks!

check to see if the solenoid is buzzing when you do that test.

Make sure your Y hose is installed correctly with the proper factory Y fitting.
