First off, I already searched, and couldnt find an answer.

anyway, i got a mbc from the guy I bought my car from, it is a cheepo looking one( no brand names, just solid black and red) So i just installed it and went to test it out. I set it almost all the way out to start with, then I tightened it up as i went, but it never got any more boost?? The only thing i can think of is when i installed it, i got a T that was the right size for 2 sides, but the other side was just a little smaller, so i figured i could just zip tie it on and be fine. It really isnt that loose. So i guess my question is how tight does a hose have to be??

Thanks guys!
