It looks like that silicone bend going to the intercooler was clamping under boost. Hopefully it wont restrict the setup under more power

What do you mean by clamping bro? What your seeing in the video is the exit side(driver side) exit of the intercooler,... it's a T bolt and 3 ply silicone that tests very well with diesel guys, it won't come apart. trying to understand but, I do not sir.

wrong.

The silicone grows a bit when the turbo builds boost and charges the pipes. What you are seeing is the silicone going back to its normal shape with no boost and possibly a little bit of collapse as the engine goes into vacuum after letting off.

Nothing wrong with what is going on.
