Anyone try this boost leak testing kit?
Chasing down a tiny boost leak in my system is barely noticeable, but I’m having slightly slowed spool and my FF is maxed out on the JB4 logs. It’s barely noticeable, but definitely not right.
Has anyone tried out this boost leak testing kit? Seems pretty legit. I know I could make my own for less, but it’s really not that expensive and comes with new DV plugs that I need to purchase anyways. https://turboboostleaktesters.com/bm...0l-twin-turbo/ |

Following, and maybe a dumb question, but could we just pop one of these into a chargepipe bung?

Interested as well in the answer.
The kit looks good, the only thing that make me afraid is that intake pipe are not made to get pressure. How psi max before intake plastic pipes pops during the test? I read it's something like 10psi, is 10 psi enough to find leaks ? |
