Ok if you have a cat go to autozone and find out what that code is. I think your running really rich. yes boost leak will do that if it is bad enough.

The sound of the exhaust sound rich as well. my car sounded like that when I was flooding it with fuel my AFR was reading 10.0 cause it was so rich the gauge couldnt read it

how many miles is that to the tank like 280ish? if so yea that is tuned.

I say its a bad boost leak too but if driving the car doesnt feel different then that is kinda strange. What BOV did you say it hd? ad what did you put in?
