Turns out its a bad idea to install a boost controller on the manifold side of the throttle body, I was chasing a vacuum leak and found it at the boost controller.

Fix is to install it anywhere in front of the throttle body then to the gate, A trip to lowes for a 1/8 NPT barb fitting and a hour later the car is running a lot better.
