Its pretty straight forward for hooking it up. Just make sure you hook it up wastegate style, and have it set to manual and not auto. And just start with the gain and set at 0 and move up until you feel your where you need to be. Its pretty easy.

On my Turbonetics, the max gain I could set without overboosting was 27.

My set is around 15 and gain is around 70 I think. It makes about 8.5 psi. It initially spikes like 8.9-9.2, but its a solid 8.5 across the board.
