If your losing 1lb/sec, ya gots a leak. It's probably where the compressor housing bolts to the turbo it's self. Pressure it up to 40lbs and use a little soapy water and spray it around where you hear the leak. Also around the boots and intake horn.

well the leaks are coming from the back of the compressor housing where the bolts are. Guess I'll call bd this week and talk to them I tried tightening them and still dies it. Should I attempt to take the bolts loose and check it out to see if there is a gasket or just pay the rediclous shipping amount to sent it back to them? I'm my opinion this is BS as much as I have went through with this turbo. I've been battling this boost issue since I got it. I'm gonna put the stock back on this week to make sure I can still hold 40 with the stock so I can make sure it's not the truck.
