had an idea that I had a boost leak on my car recently since running even richer than normal, stalling at junctions etc.

Anyway last weekend i tried to do it with a foot pump but once I got to 10 psi you could hear a leak but it lost it so quick you didnt have time to find it. Anyhow I went to a mates today and christened his new compressor and found the leak.

It turns out the hose clip to the DV had worked its way loose, AND where one of the pipes screws into the DV it had come loose so re fitted that with some PTFE tape to ensure a good seal so car feels alot lot better than it was.
