so i made my own boost leak tester and it works like a charm found the leak and it was a simple vacuum hose i guess when i took the turbo inlet pipe off and reinstalled it i pinched the hose and i replaced it and wow night and day difference

Sounds like u have a boost leak I'd check all ur vacuum lines and gasket for the turbo that hose was from the stock air box

I feel like this can be the same hose that sticks upward from the inlet, i adjusted mines slightly but i still feel like its hitting the hood. Im going to trim it next week when I put my PRL intercooler and charge pipes
