Is my bov too close...i think im loosing boost too soon. i also have crappy mbc too...like those ebay 10 dollar ones.. can that be the cause of boost leak and boost creep?

Your BOV placement is fine. 99% chance boost creep and leak is from your cheap MBC. Get a JoeP. THey're cheap and reliable as ****!
 
yeah man that waht i was thinkin. I installed the cheapo mbc from day one and It always creeped and leaked. I never knew it was not supposed to do that until my supra buddy was like why is ur boost spiking to 7 psi then goes down to 4 or 5? I said i dunno man it always did that. I assumed it was normal becuase i never had a turboed vehicle b4 and this was my 1st i built.
But yeah i think ur right. thanks
