Replaced injectors now no power or idle
Last night I replaced the secondary injectors with some 720's then replaced all the bad vacuum lines and IM gasket.
Now the car does not want to idle and while driving the turbo is much louder with a major loss of power.
Im guessing its a leak somewhere but where? I have double checked everything. Im boosting 3 psi on 2nd gear according to my gauge and I usually boost 6+.
Could it be that the new gasket is not sealing?

You may have left unplugged some sensors, such as the Air Control Valve. Also, check and see if when installing the injectors any of the wires was pinched. Your Intake Manifold may not be sealed. Did you eliminate something or installed block-off plates? Because if so, you are going to have a hard time just as I did. Good Luck!!

So after school I drove to Auto zone bought carb cleaner and RTV to put on my intake just in case it was that. Right when I get home I go around the engine bay looking around and right away I find the hose that goes from the BOV to right under the TPS unplugged....WOW.
So my idle is fixed and now I boost like before but the power loss is still there when it comes to high RPM. I think its because its too much gas (Maybe) so I will now put the Rtek back on and see how it runs.
