Question Boost Leak at TB Throttle

Hey all,

A couple weeks ago I was having some issues with a boost leak so I did the pressure test and tracked all the major ones down. While doing that I found a leak where the throttle control goes into the TB. It is the shaft that the butterflys are attached to. Did not seem to be a very big leak just a few bubbles.
Should I look at getting a TB or is this something not to worry about?


Thanks all
Mike

IMO, don't worry about it. Compared to the rest of the airflow, it's insignificant.
