Question issues with supercharger.

So, I have my 06 ss/sc and I have been boosting only at 2.5 psi, and I finally ran to check for error codes. After running the error codes, i got P0033 Supercharger Bypass Valve Solenoid Control Circuit PCM. Any idea on how to fix this situation, wether you can do it yourself of it has to be done by the dealership? Any info will really help....thanks

1)Test for an intermittent and for a poor connection at the boost control solenoid.

2)Connect a DMM to the terminals of the boost control solenoid.
Measure the resistance of the boost control solenoid.
Is the resistance within the specified range?
20-35 ohms
If resistance is to high replace the solenoid!

3)Inspect wires feeding the connector for the solenoid.

Location of solenoid

Supercharger Boost Control Valve Solenoid (LSJ)
On top of the engine near the canister purge solenoid
Right side between valve cover and fuse box.

try having a look at the canister in front of the supercharger. there is a rod that goes up into the valve. I had the same problem, couldnt figure it out, until i checked that rod and realized it was stuck open. It should move fairly freely in and out of the valve. if it doesnt, lubricate the **** out of it with rustcheck, or some similar lubricant

Did you ever figure out what the issue was?
I replaced my bypass solenoid and actuator valve.
Still can't get above 0psi
At idle I'm around -20psi
Getting about 10mpg
Smell gas fumes
Unsure if those are related.

If you're only getting 10 mpg, it sounds like your front O2 sensor has gone bad, so the car is just dumping fuel.
