Question More Boost Problems

OK ive got even more problems with my boost. The wastegate is working fine, so Im still confused. It feels like the car kinda dies when my boost gauge reads my boost. I mean there is nothing there!!!! What could be wrong, the turbo spools and blows off, but theres no boost at all!! My GS eclipse would beat this gs-t. Its real sad and no mechanic around here no sh!t about turbo's. I boost leak tested it and found nothing. Please help this is getting old real quick! Thanks

Seriously sounds like boost leak. If you are hearing the spool and just not going anywhere then there's not really much else it could be. Tighten up all clamps and have someone rev the engine so you can feel if any air is comming out of any clamps. Does the car kinda bog and shake if you were to floor it?
