Boost/engine problem

Boost/engine problem
A while ago I posted about a problem with my fuel pumps not powering on. I got the response of it being the AFM or the COR relay. I have swapped both of those, as well as another computer. Still the same problem...
Now, I have to get my car from my apartment back to my parents garage. Not a big deal in itself, but the car has not been working. I ran a power wire from the batery, to a relay and fuse, and to a switch and then back to the pumps. This works well enough for me to get the car to the garage, but if I hit 10 or so pounds of boost and let off, the car will run "bogged down" for a few seconds and then die. I can start it up and it is fine again until I get into boost.
My thoughts are that it is a boost leak from somewhere, but I also have a feeling that it may be the MSD boost/timing box that is on the car. Any thoughts?

The car has an older gen. BEGI kit. The no management to speak of, other that the MSD boost/timing deal. It is a recirculated BV, and is currently running a tiny Bell intercooler. Fuel type is 93, with the occasional spritz of 100 octane if I am going to be "playing".
Since that pic was taken, it has been upgrades with an aluminum radiator, new hardlines for the turbo water supply/return, and maintenance items.
