I tested out the car and all seems well but I am a little paranoid about it. How do know if I have a boost leak without a boost guage? Will I limp or get a check engine light?

Is there a way to measure boost with the BT Tool?

Sorry for the off topic...
listen for the leak, beat the hell out of the car and if there is no CEL or loss i power your probably ok.


better yet, get a boost gauge, you need one.
