Not making boost after AT to MT swap.
Yes I've tried searching, but I must not be using the right keywords. I promise I looked for a good 30 mins because I know I'm not the only one to have this issue.
Here's the story, I completed the AT to MT swap using the automatic harness and just splicing/soldering the needed wires and installed a Power FC. A reset the PFC back to it's factory map and let it learn for 30 minutes, and made sure that boost control isn't on, but the engine is still running pretty rough. Before the swap I had no issues at all with making boost and power correctly.
Then I noticed my factory boost gauge was not moving at all, I then confirmed it on the PFC commander.
It's looking like a hose somewhere didn't get reconnected or got knocked off. I've searched around the intake manifold and turbo's and haven't noticed anything obvious.
Do you guys have any ideas where to start at?

Disregard fellas, I'm a dumb dumb.
The hose coming from the boost control solenoid popped off it's home near the backside of the throttle body.
Mods feel free to delete this if it's been covered before (surely it has). Or maybe it'll serve some purpose for anyone else who might have a noob moment like me!
