I know the vacuum lines quite well and I am still on PCM controlled. I got a nice vacuum block. Just got the fittings today. Buuut I am running an aftermarket BOV. If you are still running the stock surge valve/Mopar rice plate then there really isn't anything to do IMO. Specially if you are on the stock waste gate.

You need to pick up the fittings for the P2R block?

Good luck with that. The thing that sucks about the SRT vacuumk setup are the damn solenoids. They are very very small. Then the other end of the line is going to a bigger port...

Glasswars. That company I got the vac block at.. It didn't come in gold but black. I guess they didn't have the gold one. I am slightly upset since I lost like $3. No they didn't come witht he fittings. I had to pay $10+ at the hardware store. I know the OBX ones come with them. But they aren't the right ones I needed.

ok so new problems im only making 5lbs of boost

heres what i did i unplugged the vaclines from the solenoid block 2 run them a little better and i plugged them back in, in what im pretty sure is the stock setup......i have no aftermarket wastegate or bov and im pretty sure i have no boost leaks since all my lines are tight i checked and rechecked

so heres how my lines are on the solenoid..this is the only place i unplugged the lines so there all ran 2 where they were ran when i bought the car and b4 i had boost problems

under solenoid 2 i have
green on top
black in mid
bottom capped

solenoid 3
blue on top
pink in mid
black on bottom

solenoid 1
red top
white mid
bottom is capped

i got this from srt forums so called vac diagram thread and have no luck with boost pressure only pushin 5 lbs

on the site it says once u have ur vac lines ran how u want u basically have 2 reset the boost pressure....if this is the case how do i do this?

ive tried everything i could think of and no luck
