    I was driving last week and noticed that I was only making about half boost at full throttle. When I got back I checked to make sure some vacuum lines were in place and one of the elbows broke off. My car has been running full boost since. Yesterday, I got a replacement elbow, which didn't fit exactly right, but still did the job, and the car dropped back to half boost. Any thoughts?
