are you able to raise and lower the boost, you may have installed it wrong. But yes on a 1g bov you can hold 16psi. go to www.vfaq.com to see how to install the mbc. Basically one end should go to the wastegate and the other to the compressor housing of the turbo

o ok . its a 1g bov with the 1g hardpipe. i thought it would just bolt right up too. but the way it looks its like impossible. because the stock bov on the 2g is plastic along with half the upper ic piping. i dont know how to install it. unless i need some aftermarket piping and if i do then i just need to know. lol

Yeah the a 1g hardpipe will not fit a 2g lol, you need to find auicp for a 2g flanged for a 1g bov. I thought you had a hard uicp for a 2g. You can find one on dsmtrader.com.
