Default Boost issue.

Hey guys i need help with an issue i had today with my turboed S. Today i took my car out after a oil change and changed gaskets on my Mani and Turbo and ran the car when all of the sudden when i hit it on 2nd and boosted i backfired a few times and lost boost completley. I drove it back home and checked under the engine and saw no problems with hoses, sensors, turbo, piping, nothing seemed loose. I took the car again for a ride and when i hit it there is no boost and all I hear is a whistling noise from turbo and my BOV doesnt even make a sound anymore and whats so funny is that car is running fine like it has no turbo at all with no vtec either. WTF! So tomorrow i will check for anything that can cause problem and hoping i dont have a blown turbo or what not. But if anybody ever heard anything related to this issue please let me know.

Never mind guys i found problem, Ive talked to Mase and explained my issue and he said I must of blew off a charge pipe and he was right. I looked under where it connected to intercooler and there it was. So i reconnected and tightened all clamps to make sure and she ran like a rocket ship i was happy!!!!!
