The other day I romped on it and the car felt sluggish. I looked over at my failsafe gauge and the PSI (which is normally ~11psi) was at ~8psi. I figured that since my perrin motor mounts had shaken my oil cooler fittings and bolts loose that they had struck again. I took the bumper off and tightened up all the clamps on the piping and which got the PSI up to ~9. The car feels closer to normal, but still a bit slower than it was.

Any other ideas out there? Hoping the blower isn't shot, but it has gotten louder.
Well, the boost leak that I though I had isn't there. Its at the shop now and they're going to pull the system off and go through it. No rotrex oil in the intercooler piping, so the seals havent been leaking. But its down to 6.6 psi at red line now. So, maybe the blower IS dying? Which will probably be expensive...
