There is only one thing I can think of, but I don't know for sure so I need some feedback.
The Vacum Tree coming out of the */C. The O-Ring that seals it at the bottom was getting pretty old and cracked, I reused the old one cause I had to wait for the new one to come in from the USA. I have the new one but haven't installed it yet.
Could this be the cause if it is leaking ?
I don't think there are any other vacum leaks cause the car idles better than ever (nice and stable) and all the lines looked good.
Thanks again,
Dutch

If the car idles fine, you are not running lean, and you have full indicated boost, vacuum is not your problem.
Further troubleshooting in Forced Induction will be pointless for you. Boost is not your problem.

91 Octane, (always) from a major chain. Come to think of it I did put in some from **ell recently not usually were I get my petro from. Maybe that was it.
I was thinking maybe a screwy sensor, whatever it was its back to normal now, just like before the */C replacement.
Thanks,
Dutch

Did you have the Battery disconnected when you were replacing the SuperCharger?
The PCM needs to relearn if you do this...
Usually 100 miles before its back to normal
