Loss Of Boost, Yet Otherwise Running Fine?

[Lolrick]

So literally all that i've done is purchase the smallest cable ties and put one over the original hose that connect to the thin pipe/connector near the manifold. I inquired about replacing the house, but the guy from autobarn said its no good, because the end of the hose that goes over the manifold is much, much thinner than the other end that goes over the tri-connector. However, i havent had it pop off again!

With the open wires, ive sprayed them with contact cleaner and wrapped it in electrical tape. However, I've just found that i keep blowing my tail-light fuse. Do you think this is related?

Thanks again!
