EEE SPOOTEY VAN!!!

well we just got back from putting a grianger valve on my bro's mini and playing with it but we still only get 3psi of boost!

I hooked up the right end to a vacum source and the other side to the wastegate can and took it for a drive with my dad we only got 3psi and we stopped 3 times and adjusted the grainger for more boost each time...

also I went under the van and checked out the compressor side of the turbo stuck my finger in there, it spun nicely with a 1/32 shaft play. thats the smallest ive felt on a turbo yet (that wasn't new) and this thing has 150k on it.

so why do you think were only getting 3psi?
