My boost leak test yielded that my BISS area is leaking (that might explain my high idle) and I need a new TB Elbow gasket. No big deal, I'll order the parts and get it fixed up. I also had a hissing from the turbo area. I tried spraying soapy water around the outlet flange with no results and also around the tester (thinking my tester might need some fixing) but no bubbles there either. What else could be hissing around my turbo? It's in good shape, I have zero shaft play.

Thanks :thumb:

When I had the hissing around my 14b, it was the compressor cover seal.
