I put in the restrictor pill and can now achieve boost. Hard to tell before because i was trying not to push past 4000rpm, as I have a fresh engine rebuild. To test boost, I have gone WOT in 3rd gear and whatcha know...boosted past 15 psi no problem. As soon as i got there, I let off the pedal, so I assume it works now.

The last guy was probably running a mbc. I would go that route over installing the pill. Although both will work
