    No worries. Now its looking a bit more english. I have a 1k resister in my box of bits here. Does it matter if its, 1W or 0.5W?

    I have now a 620ohm resister in the boost wire which gives me about 5 psi and no where near the smoke as the 1k resister gave.

    cut the green wire on the boost sensor and put a 1.5 k resister in line and make some smoke about all it's good for now if you want to make it run give haney a shout
