well just yesterday i was out driving my car and it was fine earlier in the day, but i took it out later and for some reason it would only hit like 3psi and then the car like stoped pulling, like it lost boost, and also after 3 psi the BOV didn't open anymore?? is this a boost leak somewhere? any advice is appreciated, thanks.

could be anything. check for boost leaks. check vaccum lines, wastegate lines, couplers. for your sake i hope its just a boost leak and not something internal.

ok, it was an easy fix i think, there was a rubber coupler that connects the intercooler piping together, and the clamp on it had come really loose for some reason, so i tightened that up and i just drove it and boosted gently on it and it got up to 5psi so i think its better now
