AEM Tru Boost Tips

Hey guys...I have the new AEM tru boost gauge installed in my car. Everything is installed correctly but I need help raising the boost on the gauge. Is there any write ups that are easy and straight forward. I cant get the boost above 12-13psi. My goal is to get it up to 22psi. I had a MBC before never had issues. Does anyone else have this unit and if so can you give me some tips on what to program and how. BTW the pics of all the tru boost show the leds lighting up all the way as you build boost. I have only seen the single LED go up and down as you build boost.

THANKS!!!!

I don't have any experience with this but if I had to guess, I'd say it's one of two things:

1. You have the solenoid hooked up backwards.
2. Some EBCs have a setting for poppet or flapper style wastegates, the stock one is a flapper, you may have selected the wrong one.

Edit: I meant to say "I don't have any experience with this particular EBC"

OooOOO I might have to bring it by the Shop that installed it to check it out...Thanks for the advice. If anyone has experience with this EBC do they have a setting lay out so maybe I can try that and if that works then its not the hook up. The shop I took it too is pretty good so I would guess they did it right but like you said Jbrown you never know...
