boost leak question number......lost count

How serious of a boost leak would I have if the vacuum hose going from the blow off valve to the bac had a clamp on one end but didn't on the other? As some may know I've been haveing a boost problem for a while and I can't find out what it is but just reasantly found that this hose has a clamp on one end but the end that is connected to the bac has none so it just slips right off very easily. Any help would be great! THanks.

damn not what I wanted to hear. lol. I have a couple of other projects going on right now like changing the front bumper and some other body work and replacing the oil pedestal but after that I will check. I thought I read somewhere that that would cause boost leak. DOn't realy know though.

replace all of your vacume lines. go under the UIM and replace every single on and put zip ties on the ends.

I've done that already and still nothing. Changed them out to silicone hoses.
