Post NO BOOST!

Yesterday the car ran great..
This morning, no boost!

The guage registers a vacumn under idle and seems to react and register just fine. Problem is, I cant get any positive pressure in the manifold. I know that the Turbo is spooling cuase I can hear it, and becuase the boost guage is moving up to 1 bar when reved, but not past it. I suspect a leak. I thought maybe the waste gate was stuck open, but since the boost enhancer bypasses it until 10 psi, I would be able to get some boost before it vented to the open wastegate. Any ideas??

I imagine that it is safe to drive the car? albiet kinda boring.

Sergio.
