Wouldn`t know as your ment to go to a tuner and get it set up on a RR. Otherwise your fueling wont be right and your engine wont last long IMO mate

Sounds like you've got it plumbed in wrong!
Yes with it closed you should be boosting the same as before you fitted it.
But without the Fuelling increased to match, any more boost and your going to melt!!
Take it back out and get a Tuner to fit and set it up!!!
