Boost gauge is no longer a vacuum gauge.
So thats it boys and girls, I am officially boosted. Put in the IC pipes today and took her for a spin, with a quick stop through a gas station.
All I gotta say is - Holy ******* ****. I gave it like 30% throttle out of my garage and it went into boost; I almost pissed myself.
Video of me just revving.

I just want to say that if it wasnt for you guys, and most importantly guys like Braineack, Arkmage, Savington, Paul and especially Cjernigan who pretty much hand held me and nursed me from the very beginning when I first started building my MS; I would not be where I am today.
You guys helped me realize a goal that I set out for myself and taught me something that I would have no other way of learning. I am a person that always completes the journeys he sets out on and without you along side me this would have not been possible.
I cannot find the words to express the gratitude I have to this forum and the people who make up its colorful community. I do have only one regret, and that is that we dont all live closer to one another. Good people are few and far, and if we were living closer things would be even better. I hope that one day I can do for some of you what you have done for me, especially you Chad, who I consider a brother.
Thanks Everyone. I love you guys.

It is really something else.
My father doesn't understand why I need the power, all he said to me when I took him for a ride is why im slamming my gears. Turns out he thought the BOV was my transmission. Otherwise he was proud I finished what I started.
My mechanic stopped by, he was speechless except for two words "pretty lively".
My mother said "SLOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWW DOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWNNNN!!!!!!!!!!".
