So after fixing my boost leaks I performed one more blt. It held perfect at 20psi but I could hear a faint dripping sound coming from what sounds like the rear of the engine below the intake manifold. What could cause this my compression is perfect and I never experience any blow by. The engine was warm as I drive it about 45 mins before I did the blt. Also my small 16g has no shaft play at all. Thanks for any help
 
You sure it isn't a bubbly sound? Are you pressurizing pre-turbo? Could be leaking a bit past the dynamic seal of the turbo and down through the turbo's oil drain.
 
I guess you could say bubbling sound, im pressurizing the intake of the turbo
