Re: 98 GS-T misfire/backfire

Well it sounds like the boost controller is hooked up backwards then. The bottom one is going to the intake(kinda like your picture but it's further downstream from the turbo) and the one off the side goes to the T with one end to the wastegate. I just switched the two, drove it and no change. Get on the throttle a little easier(less than 10lbs) and it goes fine. What I got was fluttering(about 15lbs) before it popped, kinda like it was missing. I've run it up around 17lbs steady without any problem. I can't figure out why sometimes it coughs, sometimes it doesn't.
The BOV for sure has two nipples. It's a Greddy, not sure if it's the type-S everyone talks about. The lower nipple is uncapped, the upper piped into the intake manifold.
How do you post pictures on here without a link? I can get pics of the BOV, etc.
