Okay so I was driving home and decided to have some fun with some bikes on 494. Long story short I was running about 18 psi and then noticed it tapered off and from then I couldn't build any boost at all. I did notice that there was a decent amount of white smoke coming out from under the car(not the exhaust). Limping it home I noticed that vacuum is normal and operation is normal, but I am not building any boost. I then inspected all the IC piping and it all seems to be intact, I don't have a boost leak tester to figure out if it is a leak. The couplers I could see were on right. I don't really know what else to check. My boost gauge goes from vacuum to 0, but no higher. Is it possible that it is a really big leak? Head gasket?

Applicable mods are:

PTE FMIC
QPR made 2 1/2" piping
GM 3" MAS in blowthrough


Thanks in advance!
