Just "listening" for a leak wont work, unless u have super sonic hearing.
U have to pressureize the intake track to really check for leaks.


Chck out vfaq and make a intake leak tester, very easy to do.

are we talking about a vacuum leak or a boost leak? Because every vacuum leak I had I found by "listening" in the engine bay with the car at idle. Boost leaks are another story, in that case definetly check out the vfaq for the intake leak tester

any leak is a bad leak unless you have to take a leak
