Re: boost ??

No. If you have boost spikes it will jump up high and then settle down right after boost comes on. Boost creep is went the boost climbs the higher the RPMs go (usually because of small wastegates and to free flowing of exhaust).

A boost leak would probably not make the car not start. Unless you have a intercooler pipe totally off it should start. It will most like even run with a intercooler pipe off, it just wouldn't go anywhere if you were using a stock MAF.

Either way a boost leak check is a bad idea but I think the starting issue you speak of is something else entirely.
