This is an easy one. What you just said tells me that you have blown a vacum hose off somewhere.Not a big deal unless your afraid of working on your car. Pull the intake manifold off and either find the hose that is off the nipple or just go through them 1 at a time and replace them all with silicone hose .Dont forget to zip tye these down.Thgis takes about 4-5 hours depending upon your skill.It will most certainly fix your boost problem.Id bet the farm on it.Fd silicome hose kits available at www.hosetechniques.com
