I just replaced the headgasket on my car yesterday and I finally got everything buttoned up today. Crank the car, everything is perfect. Except no boost. I checked all my piping and vacuum hoses. Can't seem to figure out what is wrong. If someone could point me in the right direction, it would be greatly appreciated.

Setup::::
B18C
GT35R
Tial 44mm v-band (15 lb. spring)
AEM EMS
Apexi AVCR

The battery was disconnected for about a month in order to get everything I needed to replace everything. I dont know if that resets the controller or not. But even if it did, the WG spring should operate it up until that pressure. Everything seems to be hooked up correctly. (All oil/water lines to turbo, 1 line from WG to boost controller (the top nipple on WG) and 1 run to the nipple on the intake side of the turbo (the side nipple on WG). PLEASE HELP!!!

I just pulled the vacuum line off the wg to see if the spring or something is bad, and no change. The turbo will still not read boost. The highest it gets on the AVCR is -150. I don't know what else to do/check......
