Boost Leak!
I hooked up a boost gauge and had low boost. I then hooked up a cap to pressurize my intake system and found a leak coming from the passenger side boot on the lower intake Y pipe.
I'll probably end up taking the Y-pipe/manifold off to replace the boots, what else should I do while I'm in there? Anything that typically fails and is easier to access during the boot replacement is the type of input I'm looking for.
Thanks!

When I swapped my turbo I put the plenum inserts and I could tell right away I was glad the guys here talked me into buying them! I also got carried away and polished the inside of my intake while I had it out
