Ok, I finally got everything hooked up. Haven't gone WOT yet but set 2-5 gear to 10 psi with 20% PID, 8 learning, and both K's to 2. Just to clarify. I am connecting the black wire coming off the solenoid to a ground. I installed the resistor to the cut wires coming out of the stock wire loom but still have a CEL? I'll take pics tomorrow and post if necessary. Thanks
what is the CEL? you shouldn't have one if the resistor is installed.

P0073 ambient temp sensor high
the ambient temp sensor voltage is greater than 4.9 volts one trip fault
Maybe I don't have the connector all the way clipped on my airbox? Isn't that the right sensor?
Side note:
Took a few runs today to and from work. Got 2-5 set for 10 psi and it's very close. It does overshoot to say 13 but then drops right back down to just below 10. I have my learning @ 8 so maybe I should change it to 5 or so? Would that get rid of the little spike's?

I've modded/demodded this car twice in an attempt to sell her but just couldn't do it. 3X a charm???
So is a stage 2 wga better than the AGP wga for pre loading for lower PSI in 1st gear and good for holding up in higher gears. Is it strong enough to hold? Or are they about the same? After I get this question answered im sure i'll be ordering.
Hmm might just have to order it and then sell the AGP to recoop the cost =)
THe only other question is my Map Clamp going to f anything up as in tricking the box and computer to thinking its lower boost than it actually is and keep trying to up the pressure.

The lower the spring pressure the better IMO...especially on stock turbo.
I'll help you install it if you want. Just did mine. Easy.
I dont think so. Just tap the wire for the boost box before the signal is intercepted by the map clamp.
Yes, just send me the wiring diagram for the map clamp. It should work, as long as there is an in and out wire for the map clamp. If it is only 1 wire going to the map sensor, it probably won't work.
No, that isn't going to work. It clamps the signal coming out of the map sensor, so that the entire line will have the clamped voltage. There won't be anywhere that has the unclamped signal.
It's really a poor way to do things. It effectively shorts out the map sensor when it exceeds the voltage that you set on the dial. So, the sensor is not able to output a higher voltage. If it were designed slightly smarter, it would have 4 wires, a MAP signal in and a MAP signal out and it wouldn't short out the MAP sensor output, but would still output a clamped voltage.
Anyway, the short answer is that it won't work. The boost will run away if you try to set it above the MAP clamp level because no matter how high it goes, the boost controller won't know about it.
