You want me to hold the brake, and accelerate to see whats wrong with my car? If it doesn' boost, then what?! I haven't diagnosed anything! All I've done is worn my brakes down...lol

So I tried this so called "Brake Boost" in 1st gear and the gauge went up to about 4 PSI...but when I drive regular, it wont go past 0...it may jump past 0 if I romp it but other than that..don't know what's wrong...
honestly in the 3 superchargered cars ive ridden in, they all only boost 1-3psi in first. in the ss/tc ive seen like 5psi and the turbo z24 i had for a little bit i saw 6psi in first. i'm pretty sure its normal, first does not load the motor hard enough for the engine to build boost unless you brake boost

The SS/SC has built in Boost Control for 1st Gear and 2nd through 5th gears and hitting that low of boost in first is better for traction, anyway. What you are experiencing is normal. If it starts happening in other gears, then I would get "worried".
Finally somebody that has an SC steps in, thanks rob.
