Alright today I finished up with the side mount and the gillis MBC/boost gauge etc and I still have no boost in first gear, the turbo spools up and I have boost in the rest and it holds steady but no boost or turbo spool up in first. Could it be the waste gate? Anybody else have this problem?

How far are you winding it out in first? I could understand maybe not getting as much boost as, say 3rd or 4th gear, but I don't understand no boost or spool. I wouldn't suspect the WG if it's working OK in other gears. How much boost are you getting in the other gears?
