Default More d*mn gauge problems..

I have now ran 7/32 rubber hose to a barb coupler on the back of my 3404 autometer gauge, all the way to the t at the fpr, with NO kinks or anything. In 3-4 gear it reaches 11 psi. WTF??
Before i had the crappy nylon 1/8' line it came with kinked behind the gauge even and it shows around 7psi in 3-4 gear. Everyone tells me my 225 should be showing around 14. Help Please.. I want to get it chipped but i want to make sure everything is right first..

peak vs sustained pressure? which spring are you rocking in that DV? Also, did you know there is a reply button so you dont need a new thread for every post about your boost gauge ? :-D GL

The 225 will peak at 14psi with a stock DP/cat-back, and taper to 7+psi by redline; all turbo cars have boost taper, they rarely, if ever, hold the full psi. For reference, my stock-tune 225 will spike at 22psi and taper back to maybe 11 by redline, but I run a 42DD with a BlueFlame. I'd check to make sure the boost line isn't pinched. I'm assuming you don't have a CEL?
