It takes 8,460 bolts to assemble an automobile, and one nut to scatter it all over the road.

all wires were soldered and the ground was cleaned. i did notice the level when down then the pump started to run and ive read that the sensor is extremely picky when it comes to level. im just not sure if i should bridge the sensor like so many do for a fmic or back track and just not have the pump run constantly. also like to add the light immediately comes on even if i unplug the battery for awhile.

Top off the intercooler and see if that fixes it. Since it's running constantly now you won't even need a second set of hands to help you with this. Start the car w/ hood and intercooler fill cap open. It will go down just as you described... top it off till it's just below the neck, cap it, and see if that fixes the issue. Turn car off, you will probably have a little overflow into your catch can. Clear codes, and start her up again. If it was sensor related (barring bad sensor which I doubt), this should fix the problem. I wouldn't be surprised if that was the issue since you have the pump running constantly now.

If that doesn't fix it, its either wiring, or sensor itself, which again I doubt since 54 just started popping up after you made the modification.
