Go buy a vacuum gauge, there 15$, Get 6 feet of 1/4" vacuum hose.

Buy a 1$ T-fitting, hook it up to the hose that goes from the manifold to the BPV.

You should have 14-20 HG's at idle, it should stay somewhat steady.

Grab a friend, do a couple pulls while your friend is watching the gauge. See what kind

of boost your getting. This is what I did the first day my kit was done installed. (before I

had a boost gauge). You might find your HG's are really low, or none at all. Start

looking for a fitting your forgot, BPV installed wrong, pinched hoses, and make sure your

manifold is not leaking.

you probably have about 8 pounds, You wont feel it on the stillen tune. I have a feeling you have full boost, its just the stillen tune is garbage and makes the car feel

more under powered than stock.
