Fixed my boost leak today.

I was underneath my car a few days ago checking to see if all my e-clips were still connected to the actuator rods when I noticed one of the Y-pipe gaskets were busted and hanging out of the side Y-pipe.

Today I replaced the shattered gasket and a split hose. Now it boosts 11psi with 9psi transition (used to be 5psi transition!). Here's a picture of the damage.



No I didn't pull the turbos for this , those are my old sequentials. Time to go back to the track today and see what time I can get now.
