ya, theres not much to the inlet hose, just to the turbo, the intake, an the hose that goes to the i/c. i pluged in all the vacum hoses to. im thinkin its a gasket from the up pipe. also, i was thinking that, since i cut my muffler there is no back pressure that the wastegate isnt working properly.
