Default help my car is holding back

Hi my car has been holding back in first and some times second gear and only
boosting to .9 BAR in first but second only holds back some times and the rest of their gears i get 1.4 bar. i got new coil packs , new NGK 7 with a 6 gap, new z32 maf and the lamda is not running on the power fc.
I have been told that their might be an air leak on the system what would be
the best way to check that any ideas will be very appreciated ?
