We might have completely different issues. Mine saddle doesn't cause boils. It is really chafing or sometimes almost a cut in the crease where my legs meet my glutes below my sit bones. I haven't tried a Brooks yet, but that might need to be the next step! Have you sat on the Specialized butt-o-meter to see what width is recommended? Plus there is a long thread on here about saddle selection and sizing. If you do a search on saddles you will find it.
