Higher EGT’s, lower then normal boost. Tune was for 32psi and I was seeing 25 ish. I still have a couple boost leaks at the intake manifolds, but that is going to wait for when I change the turbo. 477,000km on my truck.

No I never. I greased the tap and then left the pressure test kit on and pressurized the intake so anything would be stuck to the grease or blown out of the y bridge.

This is perfect for the cold side now what about the hot side?

You plug the hot side right at the turbo with the plug, the exhaust you could cap off at the back or the turbo. Or just deal with some leakage through the valves.

No i did not, the turbo will be able to compensate for the boost leaks, it will just take more power to produce the extra boost lowering the efficiency. If you're getting an underboost code i would be looking at the turbo vane's being the culprit. Have you gotten a vane position sensor code before?
