    Resistor needs to be in series. Means you cut the blue wire. Strip both ends. Solder to each end of the resistor.

    The way you have it the resistor isn't going to do anything.

    Yeah we bought the 250 as soon as it came out, then the next month they offered it the same price with a free spool gun, i emailed them and asked if i needed to return the unit and rebuy it (expecting a hasel even tho they have a 90 day return policy i think) they were like "no sir we will have a spool gun on the way tomorrow"

    I actually weld better with it than my buddies miller but its because im more used to it

    Intake, exhaust, lift. Typical stuff.
    No you didn't :p

    Remove the resistor and solder it so one prong is on one side of the wire and one prong on the other. The two prongs on either side of the resistor should not touch.

    Make it look like this but if I were you, I would cut down the prongs to lessen the amount of exposed metal. Make sure to insulate with heat shrink.

    Its definately not the fact that you are boosting on stock injectors with no tune is it?

    I mean like u dont have a device that add fuel during boost (i suppose if u had a meth injection set up on like a boost reference actuator u technically wouldnt have to have a "tune") like at 7 psi of boost you are running roughly 50% more air in the engine, if u dont add 50% more fuel (more actually for some cooling and safety) you are gonna be lean.

    It may be a vacuum leak or air leak somewhere but i dont think runnin boost without adjust your fuel delivery is helping anything
