loud air leak
ive been looking around and havnt got any answer to my leak
well here it is , when i start the car i can hear a loud air leak from the IM area
but i cant able to fine where it is , i think its under the IM
and when i start rolling the air leaking gets louder and after boost come in
it covers up the noies. but im sure its leaking real bad
my setup is to boost 9psi
but right now it only boost up to 0.4bar
mods are PFC. apexi intake. down pipe .greedy profec B boost controler
anyone having the same thing happening ?
i checked most of my couplers then they all in good shape.
thanks

whats the symptoms for cracked coupler ?
my car idles fine befor(1k) after i mess with the crossover / intercooler
its starting to idle real low(700-900 )and rough but after it warms up it goes back to 1k
i can hear the air vent really loud while on the throttle
and turbo surging under 3k rpm
my boost only reach 0.40bar on both turbos
pattern is like 6-2-6
