Question EBC problem

Hello There ,,
I've a 996 tt with upgraded turbos (k2418g). protomotive flashed ecu. dvs. evoms v-flow intake. gt2 intercooler. greddy profec b spec 2 boost controller.
from the first time i have put the EBC i'm getting wrong pressure reading in the EBC screen. like when i start the car it appears 99 PSI then it is decreasing when ever i push the gas pedal in both on and off modes. i get my car back again to the work shop to see if some thing attached wrong but they sayed that every thing is in its position and attached very good. This EBC i had it from my friend he was using it for another car before.
So any one got this problem before wanted to share now the solution ?

Are you sure you are reading pressure? Can you draw a diagram of how it is installed? Have you set it up correctly?

turn off the greddy with the top little button so it reads OFF.. have someone look at it while your driving... get on it in 3rd and see if it reads .8 bar or so... or maybe 12 psi depending on your setting...

here is how you should have it hooked up:

Connect the NO port to the port off of the Y-Pipe just outside of
the throttle body.
The COM port should go to the line that runs up over the manifold
and T's off to the w/g actuators.
The NC port should go to the line that runs towards the drivers side
of the car, then to the rubber pipe that holds the diverter valves.
Be sure that all the little red plugs are out of the solenoid!

I'm sure that every thing is attached properly but still reading 99 PSI when i start the car and when i'm under the full boost it reads 1 or 0 psi some times.

Not to state the obvious, but it appears that you are not getting a boost signal. Are you sure you are hooked to a hose that gets positive pressure and not JUST vacuum?
