    The car will smell rich if you have a boost leak. When I had my boost leak it felt flat on boost at around 1 bar and constantly smelt of fuel. First thing I would do mate is run the test. Its so easy to do and wont take long to do. Only thing is it didnt help me to realise it was my wastegate that was faulty. i changed it in the hope it was that and it fixed my problem. I could hear the air hissing when I ran a test though but I couldnt pin point it. Atleast it showed there was a leak and after squirting soapy water on all joints it showed it wasnt the hoses anywhere.

        I think Andy P on here makes them. Would send you my one but it didnt fit my hoses so had to borrow one so it wouldnt be any use to you either.

        If not put up a quick thread to see if anyone can lend you one. Thats what happened with me. That is why I love this forum. Everyone is always willing to help out and I was and still am most greatful to the member who lent to me. Thanks again, you know who you are
