You have a boost leak? Any thoughts on what it might be?

Not sure what the boost leak may be yet, I'm thinking it's probably related to the hot side IC pipe.

Gonna get all the leaks dealt with and get it efficient as can be. Gonna get Wideband A/F Ratio gauge too... lots to happen. Freaking pulls right now.

Might not even be a leak, it just may be that the WGA solenoid bleeds boost. We'll see.

Check your vacuum lines. And then check again, suckers can blow off, I started using hose clamps.

I have all my vacuum lines ziptied... it's either my hotside intercooler piping, or a nasty leak through the surge valve.. neither of which are fun places to try to reach. pretty soon I'm getting an intercooler so i'm going to take that opportunity to redo all of that.. eventually I'll just be able to eliminate most of the vacuum lines and have a much cleaner looking setup...

Getting to the BOV on your car is like trying to reach your hand up into a vending machine with boxing gloves on.

Don't eat for a few weeks, or move your arms, should help you to fit your arms in there. I found it was easier to slide my arm down and around the exhaust manifold, rather than trying to hit it from the top.
