Okay as some of you may know 7 months ago my car decided it didn't like my turbo and wanted to blow it up! After dan and me fixing it my car had new decided it don't like the new that's been on it for 6 months, it's still working but has lost nearly 20 psi since yesterday, the car still has some psi but not alot!

When you say it's lost boost, are there any noises occurring whilst driving? Any smoke coming out the exhaust?

There is turbo noise but it's always been like it and yeah there is black smoke but by the looks of it no more then normal tbh

I'd say that's just a shit connection where the boost gauge pipe bins either the back of the gauge or in the engine bay.....
