Default n75 to wastgate actuator line... if I had a leak in this hose, would

that be a possible source of my overboosting issue 17956/p1557 - positive boost deviation? This line is the vacuum side that would open the wategate to dump boost. My n75 checks out both via output test and reading of 29ohn. Unless my ohn should be higer.

Default Yes because if there is less pressure in the line you get more boost

since the wastegate opens when it is given pressure and closes if there is none.

Default might just have put in a new line and see this weekend. Visual

inspection didn't reveal any tears, buit its a silcone line so it might be hidden or masked by the clamp
