A boost leak bleeds airflow from the system, causes the turbo to work harder and flow more air to compensate for the leak. Because of this additional airflow, it's now much easier to hit the ECU's airflow cap. Fix the leak, the airflow numbers return to normal and you no longer hit fuel cut.

I see. I should brush up on my stocker info. I've run Link/GM MAF and AEM for a long while now, I forgot a lot of what I learned.
