stock injector leaking boost??
I was having some problems with my trap speeds so i was just going over the basis and doing a boost test when i noticed i had a pretty big leak. it started only at 5 psi and at ten it was horrible. I started searching around and i found that it is the injector seal leaking air. I put the car back together and it was not leaking fuel nor have i ever smelt gas at anytime.
I have consistently trapped 109 to 108 no matter what 60' from 1.61 "my best" to 2.0 " my worst"
Has anyone else ever had this?
Is it just a simple injector seal that i need to replace?
Could this leak be the reason for not being able to trap higher than 109.

Try replacing the seal. I have seen the oem ones start to crack as new as 6000 miles. The heat just destroys them.
I have replaced mine with the new injectors, havent had a problem since. I used a little silicon grease on mine to help fight deteriation and also help seal.
