Boost Leak But No Codes?

Whilst my car is running excellent lately it feels like I have a boost leak, and/or bad throttle response. I'm not throwing any codes, no misfires but I can literally put the pedal flat to the floor and I won't have full boost for a good two seconds. Where to look for leaks or what could this problem be. If I floor it in first from a stop I don't have full boost until like 3.5k and it feels pretty slow/won't even spin the tires below 4k.

All new coils, plugs, injectors, HPFP, walnut blast within the last 10k.

You need to log and post. Have you checked to see if you are hitting your boost target at all? "It feels pretty slow" doesn't mean squat.

I highly doubt that's it. Sprintbooster does nothing. He's already going at 100% throttle and has massive lag. Wait, why am I explaining this?

Just yesterday I swapped out an ETS FMIC for a Forge. 5 mins after leaving the workshop for home there was a loud pop. No boost, no errors/codes either! When I got home I discovered the OE hose on the cold side of the FMIC had popped out.
I still 16lbs pounds, but it feels like its like 1500rpm later than it use to be at...All the pipes look snug.
