Dude, punctuation. Seriously.
Fix the vacuum leak first. Depending on where the leak is, that may be your issue.
Where did you run the boost gauge line? Make sure it's on one of the nipples located after the blower rotors - if it's before the rotors, the gauge won't see any boost.
:gninja:
watch out for belt slip as well
if you have a leak after the TB its gunna be hard to build boost. install that lower bolt. some people will say that their car is running ok with out that bolt installed, but they are lying. fix that then you can really fix your boost problem if your still having one
if that bolt's missing, theres ur problem. fix that and the vacuum leak.

belt and vacuum leak.
i never put that bottom middle bolt and my gauge read 5psi on the street kit and 7psi on the race kit. i did have problems but i later found out it had nothing to do with the lower middle bolt, turns out all the bolts backed out which was causing me to run lean. after i fixed the bolts that backed out i never had a problem again, even with that lower middle bolt not installed
justin call me! i can help! i kno!!
The circle in Red is showing the nipples. Picture isn't the greatest, but gives you an idea.
