    So Hans mentioned that I may be building boost fast enough for the manifold pressure to not catch up with the IC pipe so it will blow off.

    Not sure what you mean by this

    BTW are you sure that the greddy doesn't have some kind of vac leak in the hose or something?
    The Tial is large which means it can dump a lot more air faster to prevent surge issues. I'm worried that the SSQV is too small if I want to run race gas and 25+.

    Nope, atmos

    To what boost levels? I can't seem to get definitive answers on what it can really handle. Seems that this design would work better with faster spooling turbos.

    Have you checked the hose for pin holes or leaks around the nippes? From what I understand using a small hose is bad also.

    Gotcha, the TIAL has been great for me. I'm using a recycle type now. (QR I think)

    I don't have any leaks and the hose is sized appropriately.

    So if this is the case then a larger TB/Mani-Tank should/would help?

    Who knows if it's really the problem? Kinda speculation at this point.
