No boost, No leaks? Lost! All vacum

So i got all my boost leaks fixed today and was running it kinda hard. Then all of a sudden it lost power in 3rd gear. Coasted and gave it some gas and it built boost? Pulled it into the garage popped the hood and noticed that the uicp was sucking in . I checked and there are no boost leaks. Everything is fine. Turbo still spins freely. Im totally lost on what could of happened.It sounded like an intercooler coupler blew off when it lost the power and broke but theres no leaks.

Are you sure it wasnt just a huge backfire? How old are your plugs?

Ever if it was a back fire? Why would that make the uicp suck in and not build an boost?

No. Im not dumb. LOL. When you give it gas the uicp collapses. Even when in gear the more gas the more vacum.

Sounds like somethings blocking the line and causing it to build too much pressure in the line. Pull off that uicp and see if somethings not in there somewhere. Also pull your filter off and check it as well.
