Installed IC Piping Car Will not go into boost.

OK I now im gonna get Flame for this one but i dont care.. I just installed Nisei IC pipe kit last night with a TiAL VTA BOV. The car idles fine but once i start to drive it doesnt wanna go past 3k rpms and it only builds about 3psi??? Do i have something unplugged that it doesnt want to go in boost?

Any suggestions would be great.

I do have a MBC and all the lines are ran to were they are suppose to go.

You knowingly did something that decreases performane in all, but the most highly tuned cars and yet you said to yourself..."Man, that Ppsshhh sound makes me look too cool I have to have it now!! "

It sounds like a boost leak or MAF go over your steps I'm sure you will find out the culprit. R/R and call it a day.

Vacuum leak maybe, I'm with the other guy...double check your connections to make sure nothing is loose or even a tiny hole/slit in vacuum line. That has to be it.

Did you remove your intake? Maybe your MAF harness is unplugged but your idle would probably be terrible.

I just check the lines running to the MBC and BOV and theres no slices or anything and there on good. MAF is plugged in..

When i have the car running and i rev it from under the hood everything seems fine i dont hear any leaks or feel air coming out of any of the pipes.. but when i drive around and give it gas i hear the turbo trying to spool loud..it sounds like a air leak but why wouldnt it do it when its not moving??
