First boost leak test atempt
I tried my first boost leak test last night and I am a little confused, unsure I did it right! I went through the diy guides built my own terster and began. I pulled the fuse for the double pumper, pulled the manual boost controller line going to the wastegate. I found two leak right away, at 20 psi. Fixed them and all was good there. But the car would not go above 20 psi. I was using a tire/ electric ball pump, through a valve stem. I know pressure was building because the tester blew off. I know the best way is with an air system but I do not have one yet. Is there anything else im supposed to unplug, or unhook? My e85 tune is good tuned to 40 psi, and I'm only getting to 20 psi. I do not hear any leaks, that would cause it to not build the pressure. Can any one help me out here with advice? Thanks
