Default Uh Oh...I think I have a boost leak...

It's a faint "TSSSsssk" noise after I let off the gas. Can someone confirm if it's my DV's or my TBB?

Default I dont think the TBB would make that sound,its your DVs..

i had the same thing happening to my car and when i got some hyperboost DVs the sound completely went away.

Default Um, how do you expect us to know if it's a leak or not?

If you suspect it is leaking, avoid WOT. You don't want to overspool the turbos.

Default I don't go WOT...it's just that i'm really meticulous about this problem...

Never had a problem till now...It's a 2001.5.
