Turbo-no-boost!

I was pullin 10 PSI in the morning and then in the afternoon, nothing! I feel like the engine is reving just as fast but the turbo pull isnt there... APC solenoid is working good, as is APC and Wastegate arm is moving freely about 1/2 an inch on the springy. I dont think its electrical because Im not even at base boost. in second I can almost get to 5 psi but not quite, base is set to 5 or 6. only 1-2 psi in each other gear. *ALSO* My fuel mixture is running a little rich, says my air/fuel gauge two bars green almost all the time and 1 bar yellow when im accelerating softly, cant accelerate hard b/c theres no boost!
Im drivin down to Carbondale tonight, is it safe to do so if not even on base boost?
THANKS!
