Installing a drag turbo kit in my buddys Accord Friday so...

Last night we got the bigger fuel pump, the upgraded M.A.P. sensor, the air/fuel gauge, the boost gauge, and all the wireing hooked up an running. Looks good, but a strange thing happening here. The boost gauge shows 7psi boost when the gas is pressed . Can anyone enlighten me on whats going on? I'm sure Ill figure it out. I'm gonna see if using a different vacuum line will do anything. I'll throw some pics up when its done.

Not quite getting what you are asking here. Are you being sarcastic?

No, No. Not being sarcastic. I just think its funny that the gauge
was showing boost when the turbo wasn't installed yet. Anyways, the install went good, however the boost gauge is still not right, an its not the choice of vacuum line we tapped off of. I'm gonna recheck the wiring. Maybe is not getting constant power? I dunno. I'm not too worried about it. the A/f gauge works fine and the engine won't blow. http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...5/fa6eead1.jpg
