Boost Is Gone

I installed the Shortie Kompact Dual Port BOV and one to two weeks later on my way to work I noticed my car had no more zip to it. Thanks to owning a COBB accessport I then quickly realized my boost psi went from 22 peak down to 7! No engine lights on and that leads me to believe a air leak is happening if not from my install but possibly another clamp coming loose since the car is brand new and breaking in.?
Any specific hoses to check or prone spots that this issue has happened before so I know exactly where to look. The car is going into the shop monday but I really dont want to wait that long for a fix.

No other parameters out of line except boost? Do you use cruise control a lot? You might have accidentally switched to the economy mode (map slot 2).

Each map can have up to 5 slots for switching. With cruise off hit the cancel/resume button. Does the tach needle go to 1k or 2k? The reason I ask is because I accidentally hit the speed up button too fast after resuming cruise and couldn't figure out why the car was so slow....I had accidentally put in in slot 2 economy mode [emoji12]

Here's an explanation of 5 way switching.
