Default EBC not functioning properly

Coming from the intake right before the TB, into the bottom port on the two port side, coming out the other side and going to the WG.

Is this correct?

I can't get the damn thing to work. At start I had it set on Normal, with P at 100 and I and D at 0. Stays at WG pressure. I adjusted P to 50, same deal, I adjusted P to 150, same thing. Then I inverted the polarity. P to 100, I and D at 0. Max pressure, I lift before I break 10psi. Changed P to 50, same thing, changed it to 150, same deal.

I can hear the solenoid cycling. If I change the Initial Value table at idle, I can get the solenoid to cycle crazy. When I change the polarity from Normal to Inverted, I can hear it click once to open/close. When I get on the throttle, before I even get into boost, I can faintly hear the solenoid cycling.

P 100 I 0 D 0

lower P unill you make boost over wastegate.

that means LOWER than 50...since you havent made boost over wastegate yet.

If you get down to P 0 I 0 D 0, report back.

Log attached. First one I left it on Inverted by mistake. Even at P0 I0 D0 it is WG pressure.

What if you take the hose going to the WG off and just connect it to boost like no boost controller.

Then just feel that side of the EBC with the car running to see if the EBC is somehow letting air through all the time.

Wouldn't that at least rule out a faulty/leaky EBC?

Seems like if software changes aren't doing anything, might want to investigate the hardware.
