Lnf won't boost

so did a pull with some random lightning that wanted to run on my way home from playing basketball and after the one pull I beat him but my car wouldn't go into boost anymore I looked at all the clamps and the intercooler looks good as well. The pull was like a 40 to about 100 my mods are bone stock with a trifecta tune at 23psi somebody help please!!!

More than likely it is a boost leak, it may be hard to find it in the dark.

Underboost? Did you throw a code? Mine did that a couple times before I had the tune logged and retuned. It is bitchin now but maybe you had the same problem. I would turn my car off then back on and it would work just fine.

boost leak. I had it once as well and thought it was something else because I couldnt find a loose clamp.

Turns out I cracked the lower charge pipe by the lower MAP sensor right where the nipple is for the vacuum hose. We all know how hard it is to get a good look at that part of the car without taking it apart...

i believe limp mode limits you to a certain speed. also it should say reduced power to notify you thats its in limp mode

is there a crack in the intercooler, spray all the connections and pipes with soapy water ( don't shake the soap water mixture duh) and do a presure test of the pipes.
