    You are correct the clear hose does go to the boost guage
    Also I see your point about the plastic Y piece I will go get a brass one on the weekend.
    The black hose on the needle valve. Is this going into the single port next to the vacuum control solenoid? Looks like it is... Your only getting 5psi now? what happens when you screw the Dawes in more?
    With the car running, pinch the blue hose on the needle valve and tell me if the rod on the actuator moves upwards. It should, then tell me how far it drops down. This maybe hard to tell. Ideally as a starting point you want it to drop around 10mm.
