I ran this same problem a few months ago. I had had some work done and the mechanic had forgotten to reconnect a hose and basically disconnected my charger. i made sure all the hoses were tight going to and from the engine and it works fine now.

This may or may not be what happened to you. Did your boost stop suddenly or gradually? what reading is the MFA giving you? I would take the charger off and see if you see any metal shavings. If you do then your charger definitely needs a rebuild and may or not be rebuildible.

If you need a rebuild, I would send it to Kompressor Kanada, they are the best.

Hope this helps.
