i have this boost leak from my secondary turbo, it wont boost properly so i cant hold 10psi after 4500, i been searching for this leak for along time, i was working on it today and called pettit, they said there are 5 solinoids to check to see if they are working properly and to see if any vacuum hoses came loose. they wont tell me which ones to check and were they are they just say study the manual, i think its bullshit since the guy knows whats wrong off the top of his head and jsut cant tell me were to look over the phone, he said the solinoid has a white nipple...does this sound familier to anyone? if so please help cuz i am getting annoyed and its depressing when your dream car just wont do what its supposed to. the car is an absolute beast when boosting properly, with a street port, full exhaust and intake, and many more. please help thanks and i appreciate any help you can give me

check your solenoid rack under the intake manifold

also check the two bolted to your upper intake manifold https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.gif

And if you take off your UIM, you might as well replace all of your vacuum hoses (if you havn't yet) and test all the solenoids on the rack.

it has a white dot on it. it actually is easier to look up the 5 solenoids in the book, than it is to try to describe it over the phone, they arent in a row or anything
