You get a full 15 in a 5 speed with the bypass.... the EEC will close the solenoid to restrict the boost to 10. So in general its open.
thinking we hear something from the dash area and maybe heat/smell after boosting. Might be the guage after all.

Ok it isn't the turn signal switch. I replaced with one that has a good emergency flasher. No difference, except that that having a working flasher is good.
