#3117, "strange...oil leak and quicker boost"


          

I notice I had a little oil leak dripping from the rear passenger side of the engine (direcly below the alternator).

I couldn't trace where the oil was coming from so I tightened a few bolt in the surrounding area (oil pan bolts, and some bolts that were on the side of the block -- oil pump bolts I believe?)
and added some oil through the dip stick hole (didn't want to take off the strut bar).

Anyhow, I go drive it today and I notice boost builds up so much faster now??? What gives???

My oil pan bolts didn't turn as much as the other bolts on the side...Were they not torqued down correctly by SATAN when they did the headgasket job??? arghhhhh??
