I don't believe there's a leak at the intake, the engine behavior hasn't changed since I got the car and less than a year ago the manifold was off the car to change the fuel shutoff valve.

Already blew through the line, there's no blockage anywhere. I don't believe it's leaking, the fittings are too tight and I can blow into the end of the fitting and get the gauge to lift 1psi.

The car is stock, so there's no special boost controller other than the overboost solenoid from MB.

I read elsewhere that the solenoids can get clogged so I think it prolbably wouldn't be a bad idea to clean it.

Thanks
