Default Re: vacuum lines for wastegate, bov, boost gauge have a problem

Okay, so I took the wastegate line and hooked it in between the intercooler and tb and it works and I kept the boost gauge and bov on the same vacuum, and the boost gauge and wastegate work but the bov still isn't opening. Could it be because the bov spring is stiffer then the wastegate spring??
