Anyhow, I notice I don't hit 5 PSI until after 4-5k RPM. Is this later than usual? It just seems like I'm not building up boost as fast as before, but it's steady around 5 PSI.

We looked around for leaks, but couldn't see or hear anything odd. Engine idles and revs fine. Every once in awhile it would raise idle and fall back (like only seen it 2-3 times since September).

So sad.
Hrmm..
The, mbc needs a boost reference which cant come from the intake. It needs to come from post throttle body no?

Edit: nvm you are correctly hooked up... I was reading your initial thread and typing this up Haha
