how much air is supposed to come out of that weep hole on the bottom of the intercooler? trying to figure out a boost leak issue and we semi fixed the crack and its not showing or leaking but the weep hole still is letting a good amount of air out and we are wondering if that's normal or ok? or should we just seal that hole also?
car is a 94' 850T

If you haven't messed with the weep hole, ie made it larger, then that weep hole isn't the issue, It has been with the car from the factory. Your problem is something else. But you can plug it up with a screw or something and now and then take it out to drain any oil thats there.

yea we didn't screw w/ it i was just wondering y it would leak that much air under load stock. is the ECU setup to compensate for that much air leaving the system or what? i know on the rwd cars our intercooler's always had just a big bolt to remove and drain it but otherwise it just semi freaked me out to see air rushing out of that hole
