Remove the Alda and overboost setup
If you're worried about overboost get a boost gauge, hook it up where the alda/overboost feed was on the manifold, and mount the gauge into one of your center vents that probably don't work anyways.(no offense, mine dont work either)

If you're super paranoid you can get a setup to set off a buzzer when you hit X psi.

I took the switchover valve out and ran the boost line straight to the ALDA. Works great.

I will possibly use a boost gage just to be sure. Actually the center vents work great......only because I used a screw from the side of the flapper to hold it open!!!
