Boost comming on quick is the wonderful thing about superchargers. I bet what is happening is the cams are allowing the supercharger to work much more efficiently, causing your boost to go up throughout the rev curve. I think you may need to do some more tuning with this motor. I'm glad you are bringing this up, as this will be an issue for all of us to deal with.
There is NO vacuum leak and I am 150% sure of that. I took the belt off the bower and the car idled beautifully. You are right about the beauty of the S/C being early boost. That is great but not when your software does not take that into consideration.
