installed my meth kit last night and during the test drive i noticed that my boost pressure seemed lower....??? it will shoot to 22-24 psi then as soon as i catch 5th gear it will jump to 32ish. i'm pretty sure it didnt do that before, maybe im an idiot and it did. any ides? i had to tap another fitting in for another boost hose for my pressure switch....my gauge is an autometer with the 1/8th'' hose, and the new hose i used for the pressure switch is 1/4'. could that somehow have anything to do with it? any ideas?

It could be the hose something similar happened tome with my turbo car the hose can't be too big or it won't read to boost correctly.

thats what i think it is. i think the 1/4 inch hose is messin up the boost reading throught the 1/8 hose
