109565, Compressor housing leak Posted by eclipse420ags, Nov-01-12 09:16 AM Did a boost leak test last night and its leaking out my copressor housing its a hahn 16g. How do you take it off snap ring pliers? I cant tell. Can you do it with the turbo still bolted up? | |

109566, RE: Compressor housing leak Posted by DarkOne, Nov-02-12 09:13 PM Unless its a huge leak, it's not really worth worrying about. Someleaking around the throttle body and around the compressor is normal, they aren't designed to be a perfect seal. | |
