2000 S281SC- I think the gasket that sits below the supercharger on top of the intake manifold is blown. Anyone ever experience this before?

The reasons I think it is blown- I have only been seeing 4-5 lbs boost this driving season (car has Demolet Intake, 70mm, Lightning MAF, 42lbs, Chicane pump, 3.55s). Also- it sounds as though air is moving or "wooshing" under acceleration, but it is heard most under load. The car was on the dyno last year with healthy power and A/F ratio.. 322HP/360TQ.

Any thoughts on how to diagnose that leak before having to remove the blower?

Thanks,

Johan
