Last week my car was dyno tuned and constantly hitting 7-8psi. Yesterday I couldn't get it to go past 5psi. Seems like it hits a limit at 4.9psi and just drops hard below 1psi.

I checked the belt for slippage and also checked for vac leaks, but everything seems normal. I'll probably look for a better leak detection method, but besides that, what are the other possible causes for this?

Sounds like belt slip

My belt from alternator to blower is super tight. However, the belt from crank to alternator is not as tight as I ran out of adjustment room, but it is still within normal tolerance I think.

Can a loose crank-alternator belt do that?

yes, a loose alternator belt can do that, because the supercharger is driven off of the alternator pulley, just becareful how hard you tighten those bolts, because i already snapped the tensioner bolt on mine, now it needs replacing.
