Boost Leak Issues

Just installed my XS-Engineering Intercooler, piping and have had problems getting over 14psi. The car runs strong, but I cannot figure out where the leak is coming from....Im super ticked off right now. I have to take it to get tested, but honestly....I dont know what it could be. All worked well with the stock piping. I am figuring I couldnt get the pipe that connects to the turbo tight enough with the tools I've got. Any suggestions for sealing that off? This is a thorn in my side, honestly.

If the car is not shuttering or hesitating you may not have a leak. Disconnect the neg side of the battery for 5-10 minutes and reconnect and see if that helps...........

I did that already, resetting the ECU......Im gonna try again, I really dont see how that can effect the entire unit to such a drastic degree. It is not shuddering or hesitating, at all...which is a great point. Thanks for the input!
