Yes it sounds like the bypass valve is not going closed, which will make the car very rich if it has a tune in it. The blower belt also needs to be very tight, and remember that a new blower belt stretches, and needs to be tightened after the first hour of use. Bob

I would say it sounds like the BOV is stuck open or the belt is totally loose. The belt needs to be tight. If you twist it sideways, it should only bend to about a 45 degree angle. Is your boost gauge mechanical or electrical? If it is mechanical and the belt is tight, then it would confirm the BOV is stuck open.
