Ok, so i have just finished fixing my leaks in the jbend on the intercooler and now i have a huge leak coming from around the turbo area, i'm going to borrow a vaccum pump to test the wastegate but what else could it be around the turbo area? Also to fix the pipe on the IC i just used JB weld and filled the holes right up, is there any type of tape I can use to wrap around just as an extra safety measure??

Also, i checked the turbo outlet, I tightened the two bolts and sprayed soapy water around that area, didnt' really see any bubbles but i might just replace the gasket and inspect that pipe.
 
i know this post won't help any. but asking questions. I recently did a boost leak test. but my gauage is not moving at all. i used to push 17 psi on T25. and it runs fine. i just had my clutch folk replaced. after that i am having huge boost leak.
For boost leak test. i searched you should remove the PCV house. but do you have to cap it or anything? Please help me out.. i can't post anything. i am a new member. (do'nt know how to post)
