Angry Vacum

I have no idea where this leak is. It sounds like its coming from inside the car on the driver side, but i cant find any vacum lines in the car. This is why im a FC guy not a FD guy. i checked the line to the pressure sensor and it seems ok. The leak happens during peak boost levels only. ive got the vacum diagrams and the only thing i see close to where im hearing it is the pressure sensor.

Why does it have to be a vacumm line? Can be an IC or connecting hose, or even a gasket .

Have you checked them?

I would suggest taking a look at the following site:

It will step you through troubleshooting boost related problems.

That's what I was thinking too, but could the brake booster cause boost problem?? I know I'm getting boost, but it's so laggy and not as fast I thought... well keep me update, I'm out of ideas
