If you're feeling boost pull and you're not seeing it then it's the guage. Pressure test the system. Get a large PVC cap, drill into it, mount a metal valve/nipple in the hole, use a bike pump or air compressor to fill upt he system by tightening the TID around the PVC cap
You'll hear any leaks you have

i think i no whats wrong wit my turbo...i think that it gets to hot inside the engine bay due to the exhaust problem which is causing my turbo to not get a good amount of cold air to spool my turbo so hopefully on wednesday when i get the new exhaust put on my turbo will be better than ever thanks for ur help...i figured this out because when its kinda cold but not fully the guage shows boost but once it warms up forget about it no boost shown so wish me luck lol thanks tho

Why the hell didn't I think of that? Someone should start a Tech archive and place these nuggets of tech in it.

I agree with if you have a turbo you need not worry about back pressure.
