How good does beer taste after a hard days work on your car!!!

Still did not get and good pressure test, removed the 2nd bung and worked my way back to the IC then to the turbo trying the to pressure up as i went along. Completely removed the MAF-Turbo hose left the metal bung in, stuck my thum in DV hole, covered the WGFV hole with an old WGFV, and covered the turbo end with my hand and the hose pressured up fine. I'm using a tyre compressor to try and get a decent pressure test it's rated to 50PSI which should be more than sufficient.

Could my turbo seals be ******ed?

When you say "tyre compressor" do you mean one of those 12v things that plugs into the cigarette lighter?

yeah

Thats the problem, they don't put enough air in quick enough, if you do have a leak, it will leak out quicker than those things can replace it!. Take the car to your local garage and use their air line.

You want to just plug where the MAF connects and then pressureise everything. This will test the breather for leaks as well as all the little vacuum lines etc. You need to use a high pressure air line. If your breather is knackered then plug it but an unhealthy breather will let ait into the system and cause the car to run ever so slightly wrong. Get it alllllllllllll sorted!
