we need a whole lot more info. setup, manifold, turbo, blow off valve, how your vac lines are run, what wastegate, etc. etc.

just discovered a leak on the exhaust, i didnt use all 5 bolts for the downpipe flange that is connected to the turbo i only used 4 because 1 of the bolt wont go in because of the weld on the downpipe and flange to the turbo. i can hear exhaust coming out of the bolt hole, would this little leak cause the no boost problem considering its just a small hole? would this affect the turbine from spooling even its on the flange. i need help guys pls

Check your charge pipe clamps. Especially if you're using the wormgear style.
