No boost

So a couple new developments with the '95 9k aero. 147k miles, head gasket in 2009. New exhaust in 2010. Lived in NH most of its life. Not sure if it was driven in winter, but it looks like someone got mod-happy. It has an after market boost gauge and boost controller. And looks like there is a wine cork plugging the spot where I assume should be a BOV (just upstream from the aftermarket air filter).
No boost - like nothing. Aftermarket gauge does show vacuum. Vacuum lines are crumbling - especially the one going through the firewall. Low power on acceleration and it does not seem to be able to get above 75mph. MPG is about 23.
Blocked cat? Blocked muffler? Any other places to check?
