It seems like one issue is causing another, and vice versa. Best way is if I get a chance to put the car back together I'll do some logging to see what's really up.
Yesterday after work, I managed to jack up the car and remove the whole front end and prep the turbo inlet area to receive the boost leak tester adapter. That part will get in tomorrow. I'll put in boost in 5psi increments all the way up to 30psi to see if I can catch anything this way. But yeah, I really want to make sure I clear the boost leak test before I go much further. Thanks so far for all the help so far.
