think i know what you mean..... 'boosted'....
but, yeah, could be a vac pipe off.... best to have a look in the bay before boosting it again

marc - vac pipes are needed for both......
if one is off going to something indicating what the current pressure is, for example...
For example... pulling one of the vac pipes that goes to one of the VSV's on mkIV supra will increase the boost alot
Kerry - have a biscuit... i thought you were meaning somthing like wound the boost up... on a bleed or something...

wastegates probably not opening so the boost just contiunes to rise. Could be the actuator pipe as vibs says.

Just check to see if the actuator is missing a connection, that'll probably be easier and more conclusive.
Or just load it up in 5th and see how fast it goes before it lets go...
