What a great video. Thanks for sharing. So I did the same test and it's not holding air in the system at all. I left it hooked up pumping about 22 lbs in the whole time, but I dont feel a leak anywhere. Could it be going back through the other side and losing it internally? Not sure where to go from here. But definitely not holding air or pressurizing. I've gone over all the clamps and fittings bit cant find a leak. I have an 05 lly. Any help is greatly appreciated

Nothing wrong with putting a new stock part on. Especially something like a boot. That boot will probably last just as long as an expensive one

What tuner do you recommend for monitoring boost and engine performance? MPG has dropped recently so I suspect I am losing boost somewhere but have no way to monitor pressure. I have a '08 LMM with DPF Delete, Cold Air Kit and 4 inch exhaust. Tune is by Diesel Domination with a slelctr switch under the dash.

I have a lly with the edge cts2 tuner, I have the billet wheel installed and the highest I’ve seen is 21 or so and that’s the same as my brothers lly and he’s got a stock turbo, do you have a boost gauge hooked up to your monitor?

What brand is your inner cooler?

Do you need to plug the turbo side of that coupler? Or no?

Would this cause the turbo to not spool up like it used to? I got a reduced engine power indicator. Turned the truck off and on a few times to lug it home. I turned it on and made it back home just down the road and it felt like no power didn’t hear it scream and then take off

What is your boost at just normal driving around? Like cruising at 60.

Does it work on the (baby diesel)? GM 3L turbo diesel.
