Default Vac Issue Update

Okay...my vac has been hovering around the 15 - 16 mark forever now and I cant seem to get it back to 20 no matter what i do....
I recently took off both my catch cans to see if they were part of the problem.(they are cheap pieces of crap that dont work and i need to invest in new ones)..
I believe i took out my check valve but I may have left it (in any case that shouldnt be the issue)... I hooked everything back up kinda stock without catch cans and checked all small hoses...everything is capped off and plugged up... I dont know where im losing this at...
Anybody know of any leaks that arent very visible? I can clearly see and check the solenoids and plumbing on it.

Does anybody know a place to get used parts? like a junk yard with alot of srt parts? I think im about to lose another wheel bearing and might need to replace the axel nut or spindle all over again.

ahhh...i didnt know i could have a vac leak from the usual suspects...i thought those were just considered boost leaks..(maybe same thing)
Boost gauge goes back to 0 when the car is shut off i believe the boost gauge is good...its probably my IC pipes...
One of my IC pipes got bent up before i bought the car and i need to buy a new set...anybody know some good brands? Or would just any do?
