Default TOO MUCH VAC (NO BOOST)

my guage is reading 30. I put the turbo kit on it ran good for a few days then it lost all boost. I think my intkae mani gasket blew. Would that cause my car not to boost.

Wastegate stuck open, boost leak at either a charge pipe coupler or elsewhere, or even possibly a blown IM gasket like you stated.

wastegateis not even opening, it is not holding enough boost to open the wastegate. all the charge pipes are good.

wastegate not opening would result in overboost. double check all your connections in your plumbing. if you had a blown intake manifold gasket your going to run lean, dependant on how big the failure is. don't boost until you get that fixed.

It does not boost at all. The turbo is not boosting enough to open the wastegate. i have gone over all the connections i cant think of anything else to check.
