Hey, welcome aboard the boards @Kirkwoodlog

How about a simple boost leak test to start. After having head work, a boost leaker should be done?

the factory harness doesn't have a chassis ground, did you add your own ground for the aftermarket stereo harness? If not you might be grounding through something else you shouldn't be.
