Random low boost?

Well I just put my intake on my car and now my car randomly will only boost to 5-10psi I checked to make sure that the intake was still properly installed and the MAG was secure and everything's ok there ? Anyone with some advice?

It's MAF, not MAG. Sounds like you have a vac leak somewhere.
1) Uninstall new intake, reinstall OEM intake and see if issue goes away.
2) If it does go away, you did something wrong with the install of the new intake. If you still have the issue, it's a leak somewhere else in the system or a MAP/TMAP sensor issue.
3) If it was caused by install, uninstall OEM intake. Try another go at reinstalling the new intake and see if you figure out what happened in that process.
4) If the issue is the intake install and you can't figure out what it is, report back here.

08 Ss/tc, dp, and cold air short ram I never had any trouble till the sri install and now it's just random makes me think the MAF sensor is going bad? And I know it's not a MAG sensor my damn iPhone with auto correct is getting the best of me...

The intake is dejon
