Well, I can promise you it wasn't due to a lack of effort on our end. I've got a few more ideas to bounce off you, but I need to get off night shift so I can work on the car a little.
I'm still convinced I've got a vacuum leak, as I think it's lost power. Starting with the PCV on the driver's side, then probably going to replace the driver's side tube down to the intake manifold. I saw on another post you're getting the meth setup going again, can't wait to see how it works when properly wired.

Yeah, I guess that was too much of a stretch for the one to the intake manifold. The one that I cut should be to my house this afternoon. I'll do a quick swap out to see if that fixes what I think is low end torque missing.
If that doesn't fix it, I may go for a few dyno pulls to see how bad it is. I never got a good torque number before, but I can use the base BMS torque number plus my previous HP number to see if I'm close. I'm half tempted to pick up stage 2, but I'm not sure I can justify the money if I'm going to keep trying to make a functioning intake. Plus I swore I wouldn't do any more mods if the intake didn't work...I hope she knows I was kidding.

You have any idea how to get the connection off the intake manifold? Or if you can access the intake manifold from under the car?
I tried for what seemed like two hours to get it off (it has one of the compressible vacuum fittings), as I think that is the real culprit. When I stretched that line to get the PCV connected I'm almost positive I did something to damage it. I feel like I'm getting lag from idle to boost, then it just jerks back to power, my guess is a vacuum leak at idle is sucking in unmetered air, then the problem goes away under boost. That is a really tight fit between the side of the engine and the fender well, and I didn't see any sort of cover to come in behind the wheel. I'm guessing you need it to be on a lift so you can pull the cover off the bottom and reach up to get it. I would sure hate to pay the dealer $100 to swap out a vacuum line, so I need to figure out how to do it.

Yes this is same as MSR but for 550 we have a lot less space to play with.
