Car runs fine &fine cept UNDER BOOST!! 700 89ti

Hey guys,

well to all of you who have been helping me that. Here's the new problem. I installed the "new"(new to me) AMM and the car idles and i can even drive it. Except now if i start driving and the boost goes to the white part of the gauge(is that positive manifold pressure???) the car bogs down and smoke pours out the back. If i keep it at boost for a while it starts to shake. I've also found two new things which might be causing this problem and again might not:

1) When installing the AMM i took everything out of the airbox. Turns out when my car got hit my bodyshop decided it not necessery to tell me my airbox is all cracked up. The crak starts up at the fender side and goesa all the way down next to the 'tube" where the "air-flap" is located.

2) I found small hose that comes of my intake manifold and goes towards the firewall. IT is small and it is not connected to anything. It looks like at te end there is plastic tubing inside the rubber hose. I taped it up, I dont think that made a difference.

Well guys what do you think? Time for an 1800?? eheh i wish All help is aprreciated

THanks, you guys are my hero's :-)
