a shop wont check for boost leaks. Chances are you have a loose clamp or open hose all together

it has to be some thing loose, its a big boost leak. For a boost leak you need positive pressure and a spray bottle with soapy water. I would still go through and retighten all your hose clamp and zip tie any vaccum hoses.
