Theres obvously a boost/vaccum leak of sorts, ive driven round briefly with a cooler pipe disconnected to run a motor in and it'll just keep suckin and make no boost. As BLESSN said could be a split section of silicone especially likely as youve just wound the boostup, you need to take your hands and thoroughly squeeze around ALL the silicone joiners not just the ones you can see as they can appear to be in place but arent, so get under the car aswell! And as Jack said thats an exhaust manifold stud...unlikely to be the cause. Its in the cooler piping.

Check that piece of silicone hose connecting cooler pipe to turbo comp cover, renowned for getting ridiculously hot and splitting, they are shielded factory (the piece of hose).......
