I may have a small boost leak, and need to test.

I searched and Tony appears to have one, but Annapolis is a little far. Anybody in VA have one (and the thing used to plug up the hole on the intake)?

Default Off to Home Depot you go! :)

I'll post a list of parts after lunch. In the meantime, search for 'home made pressure tester'.

I made one for my 1.8T but I assume that won't work?

Default That's terrific as I also work in Alexandria, thanks. I'll buy you lunch tomorrow in Alexandria

if I can change my 12:30 conference call to 1:00. I sent you an email with my contact info.

Anybody else in the Alexandria area interested in joining us?

Since people (not me) are cutting out early on Wednesday, does not look like lunch will happen.
