    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.

    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

    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

    i connected the boost gauge into power break hose line. If thats not where I'm supposed to connect it to, then where?

    The supercharger manifold has nipples that are 100% made for a vacuum line. You are doing things the hard way.

    The circle in Red is showing the nipples. Picture isn't the greatest, but gives you an idea.
