Boost issue solved:) Thanks APR!!!
So i finally got around to pressure testing my intake system and low and behold, big surprise, i've got a boost leak...
BUT not just any old loose hose, ripped/torn hose leak, no, no, that's too easy...my brand new bi-pipe has a hole in it! sweet!
The weld connecting the passenger DV to the pipe has a fairly large gap in it...nice quality control APR
I remember this being a problem years ago, but i was under the impression that they fixed it. Not that lucky it turns out.
Well, i'm going to get APR on the horn, you guys and gals have a nice day

That blows! (or doesn't blow.. wait) Can you patch it closed short term?
You could always weld it up, but I'm sure they'll replace it. Sucks you have to go through the labor again...
