SEARCH...

Search on here & google & other forums for "boost leak tester", or "check boost leak".

I just did a search on google rite now, and "boost leak tester" should give you good enough results based on the first page alone.

Smoke machine

I have a home-made kit. But by the time I have enough smoke to fill the intake, I can barely comprehend what I'm doing
