Default Damn pressure leaks...

I seem to have developed a slight leak in my charge piping, and it sucks, cause I'll be able to get around 7 psi, then it just leaks. I had a look at all the couplers, and they're all good, so who knows where its coming from. Tomorrow I'll have to take everything apart to have a look to see if I can find it. Booo for leaks

Anyone else have any screwed up leaks that took forever to find? Lets hear some off the wall stories

I've had couplers blow off, but haven't had a leak yet. Make sure the couplers are sealing good. T-bolt clamps are what I'll be getting for my next setup

Here is what I have seen some DSM guys do.

get a rubber coupler, and push a PVC cap into it..have a hole where you can attach an attachment for compressed air. put the rubber coupler over the turbo inlet and pressurize the system with compressed air.

You can hear and feel the leaks you have.
