Angry weird noise boost leak???

hey fellas

yes another problem

well i been hearing some noise when i get on boost

sounds like a boost leak, my idle is at 1k now

i have tried tightening the clamps on couplers, look at every vac hose

i replace the oring thing on the intake elbow to TB

i pulled my UIM like a week ago and installed BP to remove some crap (accelarated warm up) and did the double throttle mod

i used some sealanr before i installed the BP

soo im lost

please help

Always a good idea to check what you just messed with - those block-off plates might not be sealing well.

Check all OEM intake hoses, plastic crossover tube & compressor tube for hairline cracks.

another thing to check for are you couplers...especially the one that connects the cross over pipe to the y-pipe...it may not look broken until you take it off and flex it to open up the crack...It may not be visible until 10psi hits it.
