It's all sealed up, externally anyhow. Under the covers, I don't really know. But then again, I don't really suspect anything either. Here's the report: My oil pressure gauge is acting kinda funky. Sometimes it fluctuates with rpms as intended.. Sometimes it doesn't That's the only thing that makes me suspect anything internal. I fixed the boost gauge, so that's good. During the adventure, I also honed out the turbo horn. It's much more audible which I like and seems to spool much faster, but almost sounds like a boost leak haha. All the boots are good and tight so I don't really suspect that though. Here is where it gets a little worrisome however. Twice under WOT, when it's coming through 3rd gear it's like it just quits making power. I throttle out a little and she's right back in action. For peace of mind, I've pulled over both times and done a WOT launch and it's like the issue has corrected its self. Is that indicative of anything common? No codes are set or anything like that. Lastly, It's like something is missing on low end power. For example creeping through parking lots. Seems like it's missing some of that low low end torque or something. I can remember burping the throttle or just barely pushing it used to seem to yield a bit more gogo. The steering wheel seems a bit harder to turn then I remember also but then again, this is my first time to drive it in over a month. Maybe it's in my head?? The biggest plus, No firm radiator hose yet!!! Any suggestions or advice are appreciated as always guys!

Well, the fuel system did not hold prime over night. It held enough to fire. But died a few moments later and I had to pump the primer again. I rebuilt the filter head according to Merchant's video. I doubt that's the culprit. What is the best way to start tracing an air leak? Are there any good tricks out there? Thanks All!
