Bingo. With all the tweakin you been doing under the hood it would make sense that you ARE going to have some boost leaks of some kind. It's super easy to test for boost leaks and there is a good writeup on vfaq.com But I really can't believe how many mods you've done to that car in such a short amount of time. Good job and good luck!

i'll check up on vfaq.com. as for the mods in the time span, i just really enjoy working on cars. it's my passion. and i seem to get really good deals on car parts. so, with winter fast approaching, i don't want a whole bunch of parts sitting in the garage until it warms back up enough that i feel like going out in the weather to work on the car. funny thing is i still have MORE parts for it going on in the next couple weekends, so i guess stay tuned.
