Default Profec B II

Hey guys got a profec b II installed 2day at the jshop and on my Stock my99 WRX and its only boosting between 5 - 10 psi, the dude said that it was something to do with the stock solenoid, but i thought the solenoid should be disconnected coz the EBC ??? If any1 can shed some light on this for me guys it would be much appreciated or let me know if they have a Profec B II working on a stock my99 with standard ecu and let us know how u did it ??

He went to somewhere else other than J-Shop?
Look up some of the reputable workshops mentioned on the forums.

most mistakes are the way they plumb up the hoses. some lacky at speedwords did it to mine and i had a similare problem. Sean change the hoses around and pronto...it was back to normal again..

Get it looked at by a workshop. Don't go touching your boost controller until the car is sitting on a dyno, for your own sake. Get the install looked at too - Who knows what they've done to it.
