I just unhooked the boost line from the back of the gauge last night and cut a bit if the line off to make sure I had a clean piece inserted into the fitting - When I first put it in I had the line pushed all the way up to the back of the brass fitting on the gauge - But I read somewhere that wasn't ideal.. So I left a bit of a gap this time.. I also noticed that the Ferrell (sp) didn't have a tight fit around the boost line - So I put a bit of RTV there to make sure it seals and isn't loosing pressure there....

I'm gonna give it a shot today and see what we get....

Talking with Jody the other day he had told me that at cruising speeds on the highway - with no load - I should see zero boost....

I'm confused - But that's not hard to do
