Not getting full boost - any ideas?

I have a 2002 9-5 Aero with a full stage 3 kit (including T5 cams) and software done at JZW tuning. I sent an e-mail seeking advice from him, but thought I would get some other input here. I do not have a boost gauge to know exact boost levels, so I just have to go off the stock one.
Under hard acceleration, it only goes about 3/4 of the way into the yellow and then slowly works its way towards the red at higher RPMs, but it never gets to the red. I know stock that it goes into the red and it used to go into the red.
My only idea would be a vacuum leak, but I am not sure where to start looking for one. I made sure all the connections that I could see were solid, but didn't find anything. Anybody have any ideas? Thanks!
