Best thing you can do is to install a boost, when everything is ok record what you have when you start to loose boost is change fuel filters most times the boost will come back. Always carry a couple of spare filters. One time I drove all night with almost no boost coming home from Atlanta got to Covington Ky stopped in a little truck stop was looking at turbo and all the hoses and connection, old mechanic come up ask what the problem was told him no boost just grunted and said change fuel filters I thought obeys this is good but was tired and figured didn't have anything to loose. Was carring spares changed both start up I 75 sure enough 18 max boost and everything was fine. From then on watched boost as soon as it would drop a couple lbs from max I would change filters.
