Default 7mgte loading up and not boosting

i was driving home from work in clearwater last week and the car was running perfect boosting hard. anyway i said to myself let me pass by my boyz shop! so as i was making a U turn i punched it and did a 1st gear pulland let off and let the car ron into the shop yard. now as i rolled into the yard the car started to die like when you ic pipe popped off. i checked everyting and nothing is off not even the ic pipes came off. now as i type it starts up everytime but it shuts off, i and to keep my foot on the gas for it to stay on! i will post a video later!

Sounds like an obvious vacuum leak. Maybe it blew an intake gasket or blew a hole in a hose.
