MBC= service engine soon

Hooked up my Forge MBC from wastegate to side of the Forge and turbo to the bottom of the forge.

i unhooked the orginal lines that were goin from the wastegate and the turbo to the boost soleiod and left those two nipples open.

I Have the forge on the loweest setting but when i do a 4th gear pull the service engine soon light comes on. And the Rpms stick like hell and bounce!

Any idea what im doing wrong.?

and when do i hook up the line for a boost gauge?!!

Original line going to WG has a pill. Oops, if inline will affect boost negatively by decreasing boost. So probably hooked lines up backwards. Install boost gauge before continuing.

Local guy here tried running the perrin. We used all new hoses. He had nothing but problems. Car going into limp mode, check engine lights all that crap. He took it off and put it back to stock boost control and it's been fine since.

I would cap those two open nipples to make sure you don't have any leaks.
