haha, I was gonna post that it sounded like the map sensor was pegged out, but somone else posted for him to check before i did lol.. i've seen that happen many times with the GM 3 Bar, the little connectors come loose, or the customer wires it in wrong and it reads full boost all the time. No CEL but car runs like poopoo..

Aiye, i looked at it the first time near the sensor itself. But i failed to look downstream in the wires to find that the ground wire was pulled apart.

so yea...done deal
