Default They can DETERMINE if you have a boost leak, you have to find it...

If you're suspecting a leak (low power, air sounds), the AWE pressure tester is cheaper and gets to the point quicker.

VAGS are fun, but they give you almost too much info - you're almost better off not knowing.

Default AWE pressure tester is a great help.

It confirmend my suspicion of a leak in my intake today. I just ordered a F hose replacement from MTM to fix the problem.
