Default Boost? Is it hiding?

I got my turbo all setup....and it was running fine.....now when driving its not there...its like a ghost sometimes its there and then other times is just nothing....what could be causing this...i checked boost leaks but that dont seem to be causing it..

what does your boost gauge read?? you've got boost/exhaust leak problems like my buddy justin sittin next to me. needless to say, his turbo was bound to fall off the manifold the way it was..... :P
