Mine in 1st gear still makes boost even spinning. Mine makes boost at 1/2 throttle pulling away from a stop sign and by the time I clear the intersection it's let off or hold on. You got something going on.

Do you have a Filter right on the turbo or is there a pipe with a silicon connection? Could that be sucking shut?

The small exhaust leak in the one manifold willl not help things. That allows exhaust pressure to exit instead of going to the turbine. Get that fixed. Then go from there.

A small leak won't cause 0 boost. But fix it any way
