Same situation for me

When I was cleaning the BPC I had air coming out of the electrical connection, but my understanding is that the there is a spring in that area that gets stuck necessitating the need for the cleaning.
BTW, I didn't notice much of a difference right after I cleaned it; if I floored it I could get full boost. I had just purchased the car, and up to that point the car had been running on 87. I started running premium 91+ octane when I bought the car and in a week or so after cleaning the BPC the car really opened up.
I really think that if you keep using 91+ octane fuel and really flog on the car to remap the ECU that you'll see a big difference in a few days.
