I just ask because I've done maybe 15-18 different cars this same way with no issues. And 20psi in my experience has been plenty to show a leak. If a pipe or hose isn't leaking by 20psi, chances are its not going to be a big enough leak to cause a dramatic loss in boost, especially such as the his. The higher you pressurize it the more of a chance you take to damage throttle body seals, bend the throttle plate,, etc. But everyone has their own method.

I won't be parting out. But you can buy the whole thing for 25K and part it out. Definitely worth it if you have the time to part out. Not myself though.

Either way id probably wouldnt like to pump 20+ psi into the motor from the back side of a piston.

We did like 32 to mine > . >;'

No leaks though!



By the way, is there a date for the cruise?
