[s-cars] @ 16psi ECU is going into Safe Mode. Norm max 21....

I am putting my money on the MM hose.  Its the most likely "usual suspect" if the wastegate spring is not an issue.  Good testing.(You have to plug the throttle body hose as well as the ISV and the cam vent hoses) /  Dave F.

Even though I took all the hoses off and inspected them to the best of my ability I'm thinking you are all correct and its the michelin man hose that has gone bad, the ring supports make it very difficult to see small cracks.  Also, I feel like I'm hearing more shoosh than normal, its almost loud, I havent had the car that long but when I first got it I can't recall it being anywhere near that loud.  I made the pvc cap end with a tire valve so I am going to do that next, as soon as I can get my hands on a compressor.  Thanks for all your help.  Emmett
