Check your bypass valve to make sure it's fully closing. And check all the piping to make sure nothing walked its way off and is allowing air to escape. Can also happen with the connection at the TB.

What intake manifold, since some (most really) of the after markets units, will not hold boost/leak under pressure instead?
