Boost Leak testing question

[Shane@DBPerformance]

Leaks at the TB shaft are common, but they usually aren't all that big. They aren't all that simple fix either, so most people live with them. Yours sounds like a big leak, unless its just your compressor is running out of air too quick. Do you have a regulator on the compressor? Usually you want to fill the compressor tank all the way up to it's highest pressure and then use a regulator to turn it down to 15psi or whatever on your boost gauge in the car and then pinpoint leaks. Then at least you might have some airflow for a couple minutes, unless your tank is tiny.

I wouldn't try to rebuild it myself, if it's still under warrenty. If you find more wrong with when you take it apart, then you will definately be screwed.
