overboost? hey guys quick question, need some help, my t/a is supposed to be running 7-7.5 lbs, i have a t66 turbonetics turbo, and i got on it and checked the boost gauge hit 10lbs, could there just be some loose connection, vaccuumwise? or something along those lines, ive never had this problem before, not to mention my coupler was loose and blew off as well(the elbow from my m.a.f. sensor to the throttle body) any ideas or am i just imagining stuff. this has been a strange problem could it be to to the coupler elbow being loose?

no no no i meant its creating too much boost and blowing the elbow off i worded that incorrectly, im kinda thinking that maybe my hose from my waste gate has cracked or slipped off?
