Try it without the vac block to see if it works. Be careful if you don't know how much boost it's running. What spring is in the wg?

ok thanks . But man the car is running perfect , it idles great and everything , just a bit of white smoke but thats normal i heard for the first week or so. The scary thing was when I first took the car out for a drive, I heard a loud bang sound. One of my intercooler pipes blew out like a rocket i was like holy sh*t lol(clamp was loose). I upgraded the t-netics stock turbo to a garrett t3/t04 57 trim with .63 ar this turbo is bad*ss

What would be the difference in trying it without the vaccum block just woundering. Also I have a turbosmart manual boost controller I turned it down a bit.

I just bought the block brand new from dezod. Can it be that the fittings are screwed in too much thus blocking a smooth pass for the throttle body line ???
