x2 -and while you're there, have them weld the freakin BOV on.

1. Compression test the motor to make sure it's ok.

2. Pressure test for boost leaks... especially with that ghetto BOV (which you need to get welded on there). You can make a pressure tester out of home depot parts, just a pipe cap with an air fitting. or www.boostpro.net/prodtester.html sells them. MY BOV was leaking because I hadn't tightened it up enough. Then I pressure tested it up to 14psi and nothing was leaking (after I had fixed a bunch of misc leaking blockoff plates etc).
