Yeah Frank shower cap as Austin calls it is just a bag over the ecu to keep water out. I don't see a moisture trap in your pic either. That's the little bulb thing on the bottom of Austin's pic there. Bunch of weird lights coming on = loose ground IMO (in my opinion). Double check those alt connections.

So you drove the car with the new chips and spring and only got 15-18 psi? That's a little light. Probably just getting the wastegate spring pressure. You might have a problem with the waste gate frequency valve. Also did that intercooler have a good o-ring where it bolts to the pressure pipe from the turbo?

Austin I don't think that window switch is in the correct location. :D
 
Haha good eye Chad I had a spare out when I swapping DH's did you know the the pass. switch won't work unless the drivers side switches are plugged in? Looks like the moisture trap got removed when Frank T'd in for the boost gauge.

Ok I will do that in the morning. The volts gauge is reading perfect just above 12V like itss suppose to. I don't get it :wtf: . I will check all the vac lines tomorrow too. I am getting about 17 PSI right now. I have a buddy that is a ricer and he doesn't think that my car will take his after I get everything working properly. We went to the track before I chipped it and my best time was 16.6 and his was 15.9.

The moisture trap got removed before I bought the car. I never even saw it there. I didn't know you had to put a bag over the ECU either.
 
Well if you need a moisture trap I have one it's important to keep oil or water from getting into the PT. You may want ask 034 if they can get you a stock WGFV But the race valve should work fine but the stock one would be better.
