Default Coolant leak since boosting??

Since I have had my car back I have been leaking coolant. I took it back to the shop and they checked all hoses and water pump, nothing. There theory was that hondas have a tendency to blow their radiator caps under boost, meaning they are not pressurized correctly so the coolant leaks through the overflow. NOw, would buying a higher pressure cap like a spoon eliminate that?

no way it should be blowing your cap. where is it leaking from? let it sit overnight with some newspaper under it.
