OK, so what have you done to try and see if it works? Is this a new set up? Where do you currently have it hooked to?

I bought the car like this already put together and im trying to work out the flaws it looks to have a vaccum line to coming from msd box then tees one goes to inside of car the other goes to the intake then the other comes off the intake then goes into supercharger i was looking in the supercharger book it looks like that line goes to the boost retard. the gauge may not be hooked up i thought those hoses went to it if its not hooked up where do i need to hook it up at and what do i need to buy? I appreciate your help!

Have you run the car all out. It has to be under a heavy load in the upper rpm band to start making boost. You know this right? How many #'s of boost is it supposed to make. The gauge supply line can be connected to the vacuum tree on the firewall above the wiper motor (if it's still there)
