No boost? Internal wastegate?
Well i was driving and decided to floor 2nd gear, everything was going great until i hear a pop sound. thoguht my pipe slipped off but when i pop the hood, i noticed the vaccuum hose to the 18g internal wastegate is not on it??? and now the car would not boost anymore, it wont go in boost no matter what. 0psi at wot, what could cause for not boosting, could the internal wastegate cause this?
I think it's a charge pipe. Even with a greddy wastegate stuck open, you should still get a little boost, especially at higher RPM.
Maybe the vacuum line came off, then you overboosted, then your intake blew apart

No leaking anywhere in the intercooler piping im sure, in nuetral i Rev the car and the BOV did open. So that mean it doesnt leak. The only thing i could think of right now is the internal wastegate is dead somehow? could it just die liek that??? im really confused on this... someone help!!!
