OK good. How would you be able to tell if there is a boost leak? Alot of black smoke came into the cab today through the vents

Do a boost leak test.

If you have exhaust gases coming through your vents, make sure you don't have leaks in the downpipe/cat area.

That sure explains the crap coming in the vents. Hope your head isn't damaged.
