Try switching the line to the by-pass actuator from the vacuum side to the pressure side of the manifold where you measure boost.

Might be the crank spinning because the bolts hot

Pinning the crank is a good idea but try switching the line at the actuator first.

Pin the crank first. If the balancer is spinning on the crank, it is galling & removing metal. You CAN destroy a crank like that.

IMO, every supercharged engine should have a pinned or keyed crank pulley.
