Default SpeedTuning ECU, Boost Issue...

ok my car has the speedtuning 1.1Bar ECU i got from the group buy a while back. it was running great spiking around 17psi or so, now until recently i cant spike past 10psi. i think i might have something to do with the day my battery died when i left a dome light on, and my car wouldnt start, then kill power and reset its self... i tired a few things and now im spiking at 12psi.... if anyone knows whats wrong that would be great, my car feels slow again

At idle I'm around 22 I think and driving off the gas it's around 25... Could be the POS tee and
boot connectors leakin from the boost gauge

Where you connected the boost gauge line. Or your turbo is getting play in the shaft and slowing the flow? Haha just realized how that sounds
