Message Took the z out of the garage for the first time since October. Got down the street, boosted once through 1st gear and lost boost all together.

The vacuum pulls all the way back in the factory gauge, but wont boost past 0PSI, It isn't the gauge because it clearly feels underpowered.

I am having no smoke symptoms and car drives right minus the boost missing. Im worried about having a seized turbo, wondering if it is possible that it could be a boost leak. My feeling is that it could be since the car boosted on first pull and then stops. If that was the case, would the gauge not pull back to -14?

Please advise, i did not see any oil coming out of the turbo and before I put the car away for winter there wasn't oil in the DP's.
