serious boost problems

my car is seriously running like **** now. When we were racing and the first turbo only boosts to about 7 psi in first gear and when I shift to second gear it it just feels like its not going anywhere and has no boost, till about 5500 rpm. I know the primary turbo is blowing some oil, but what the hell is going on here. It costed me 2 races yesterday night. I dont know if it matters but i do not have a downpipe on the car. Also the engine has less then 5000 miles on it. I need help bad, cuz the only thing i can think of to do is replace the turbos with something else (either another set of stock or upgraded twins or single), and i dont have the money to do that yet. mods are in sig.

You could have several problems..but until you get under the hood and eliminate them one by one you can't really point fingers yet. (could just have a boost leak somewhere)
