Assitance required!!!

Sup everyone!!! Well I just got my car back from Vakamon, Just installed some Defi gauges with the link system 2! Man it looks cool! Anyways, when I was driving back home.... It wouldn't boost like it would normally do... It would boost up to one... May be two PSI. I was kinda worried, and some of my friends said that I should put a boost controller in.... Which I am planning to when I got my STI back in January. Well if anyone knows what to do, help please!!! I knew I should have asked Ryan about how to work it.... Oh well if anyone knows, help!!! if not.. I going back to Vaka's tomorrow!!! Mahalo people!!!

It may just be the guages or the hoses are not sealed properly because when I went to install mines and drove it afterwards they weren't functioning properly so I went back. They took a look at it and fixed it. And if it still happens later in the future call them up again and ask to have them look at it. Like Myron said Ryan should know.

Woo... booster controller... umm... I think you should take it back to Ryan. It might just be bad connections. You don't want to blow your car up.

Oh, one more thing. If you do decide to get a boost controller please get advise from Ryan on how much more (boost) you should run.

Is it reading in bar?
1.5-2 bar is kinda high.
