check codes, by connecting the green and black connectors under the dash, go for a drive and count the short and long flashes. That will tell you what the computer thinks is wrong.

It would be best to take the car to somebody who can hook into the ECu and pull the codes for you, especially if you dont want to go through the fuss of connecting wires.
Does the car feel any different to drive? is it still boosting? What mods do you have?

i got one not long ago on a cold morning. Over boost tripped out causing CEL to come on and putting it in limp home mode for a day or so. Sound familiar?

it feels a lot different, its got very little pulling power and it keeps on cutting out, feels like a air leak but its all hooked up

if you used those cheap worm drive hose clamps one of them may have broken under the pressure and is now causing an air leak.
