Alright well the car tries to turn over but doesnt. After I stop trying there is a sound of air leaking out almost like a blow off and I see 1-2psi on my boost gauge. Whats up?
 
It is coming from the throttle body. You are porbaly running really lean. Check your fuel system. My car is doing the same thing right now and I installed new injectors that aren't working properly. I would check that.
 
Check Injectors, fuel filter, fuel pressure regulator, and check for intake leak possibly at the throttle body or where the intake bolts to the head.
 
you say the car trys to turn over but doesnt.... do you mean the car is cranking but wont start or the even wont even crank over????? if the car is cranking over and jsut wont start and is making that noise it sounds like a major boost leak. but if the cazr wont even crank your engine may be seized or its just a starter or soemthing but i would need a lot more information of the symptoms to have a more accerate answer
