Turbonetic kit engine stalling, anyone else beside me?

Also, you said it never stalled when you first installed it...Did anything change from the first time until now. Did you remove it for some reason and then re-installed it? Just wondering why it worked one minute, and now all of a sudden you have a problem.
Kinda like the saying "if it's not broke, don't fix it".

the problem is the fuel management system. the blow off valve is recirculated, but for some reason the ecu keeps dumping too much fuel after boost.
it could be a bad blow off valve or a bad unichip. these new engine has very little vaccum line so its really hard to blame it on vaccum leak. i'm hoping to find a cure to this problem after my dyno tune, which is still a few days away.

here are images of my tC engine bay. see if there are any mistakes on the install. for the boost gauge, i T tap into the vaccum line that run from the turbo to the wastegate.
this bracket will not line up at all. i tried drilling to enlarge the hole, but still not enough. i gave up on it.

Look at the image again, my blow off valve is T into the throttle body line. My boost gauge is T into the wastegate line for a reason. I know that the psi on the compressor will be different from the psi in the manifold.

Munch, what is the reason why i shouldn't T into this line? i think the reason why some people do not T into this line is because they fear that the boost gauge would rob some psi from the wastegate.
I T into this line because i want to know and see the actual psi. Theres about 2 psi drop once it reaches the intake manifold. The psi at the compressor is actually 9-10 psi, unless my eyes are playing tricks on me.
