Default boosted z6 need help

i have a 93 del sol, the motor is fully built and turbo. i was boosting 10 pounds and now i cant boost anything. i have no leaks on the intake side and no leaks on the exhaust be4 the turbo. the motor has 20 miles on it after the full rebuild and the turbo kit has the same. i took the turbo off and put a different one on that was good for sure and still no boost. the turbo is a to4e (off of ebay) i have changed all the gaskets on the intake. it dont smoke or anything. i have been tryin to figure it out for about a week,

You have a leak somewhere, boost doesn't just disappear.
