A pinch in a vaccum line or a small hole will have the same effect. Pull off your intake and take a look at the nipple coming off the wastegate actuator. I have seen a lot of times that a 3" intake will rub and pinch the line. Over time, it can also give you a little hole. Boost will be uncontrollable. Look that over. The ghetto intakes do that all the time and yours may also.

LOL! Simple and stupid, no one would have guessed that! I love the K.I.S.S. problem solving.
