BOOST went down??

Sup guys,
I have an accord v6 with a CT supercharger. I wanted to ask the guys here at acurazine some questions because I know a lot more people here have a supercharger with the outlaw engineering spacers than on v6p.

I recently installed my Outlaw engineering Thermoblok intake manifold spacer and it looks like my boost went down. Normally at wot my boost guage would read 7.5-8psi. After the intake manifold spacer went in, the boost guage is reading 5.5-6. I recently got a dyno and my hp numbers have not dropped.

Has anyone noticed this same thing with the spacer and supercharger? Is it weird that I am getting similar numbers on the dyno with lower boost? Did I install the spacer incorrectly? It also looks like the vacuum increased also. If something was not put back right, would vacuum increase or decrease? Someone explain this please.

Here is my air fuel readout the before and after my fpr got adjusted. I dont have the air fuel read out on my previous dyno though. Maybe this might help explain something.
