Can someone help me out? I have the brake booster going to vac 1, and the cai running to vac 2. My brakes are super hard and won’t compress. Any ideas?

Bro. Did a 4th gear pull on the freeway everything felt fine. Did a second gear pull when I got off and the IMRC shut :( then I cleared the code, revved the engine to try to get it to open. Did a 1st gear pull, and then it was fine car pulled good. What the heck

anyone know what size caps & how many are needed to block off ports that are not used if locking the manifold out?
2 Ports not used but I believe they are in there own channel and not connected to the manifold ports as they are just for the IMRC, They are like that hard plastic line under the stock 15-17 manifold but built into the manifold itself on the 18'.... I still capped them anyway

I have hardwired my plugs inplace and i keep getting P2007
Alex with lund says its wiring issue.
Originally i had the recommeded plug and play kit but kept getting the same error as well.
I cut those pigtails off and just hardwired those inplace and still get the error message.
I tried swapping the imrc plugs and it did change from P2007 to P2006 when i swapped those plugs.
I have since hardwired the plugs inplace.
Could improper vacuum hoses cause this as well?

Has anyone who has gotten a p2006 or p2007 code been able to clear it?

Has any one noticed their exhaust note change.
By that i mean i have the magnaflows on mine and the sound or loudness has been drastically cut volumewise.
I would have never thought that would happen.
The rumble i used to get when id let off the gas while coming to a stop at is almost gone.
Also unrelated has anyone ever figured out the popping sound coming from the cold air intake or throttle body.?

I did not notice a loss of exhaust volume, mine got slightly louder but switched from Airraid closed box Cai to a pmas when I did the swap. I have a whistle that I can hear when the throttle is initially applied below 2700 rpm, but think that's coming from the tb opening. On my way to work this morning did have a slight popping coming from the exhaust when adjusting speed via the cruise control (like a slight rapid backfire (possibly imrc related)), but not sure if that's anything as of yet.

I noticed a change as well. I noticed a difference again when I pulled the intake and locked out the IMRCs, especially on the highway. Its slightly louder at cruise and sounds totally different...in a pleasant way actually. I like it. When I say slight I mean slight, very very little difference but enough for me to notice "hey, sounds different".
