I'm running about 6 psi with a v1 supercharger, recently I noticed what sounded like an exhaust leak at the headers. The last time I drove it,it got a lot worse and started losing power and ran like ****. Any ideas??

Well check the exhaust for leaks and all the v band clamps on the manifolds and hot side.

pull the valve covers off and check out the valve springs... it's free to check and easy to do
