well.. after messing with the MBC and wastegate trying to get my boost over 10psi i decided to look at my turbo pipes again. i finally found my problem. i had a tear in my hose that come from the intercooler to the intake. I looked at the hoses a couple of months ago and i guess the tear was small enough i overlooked it. Now the car boosts like a big dog and before my vacuum at idle in park was only about -12 or so now its -20. heres a pic...there is a god :monkey:

Can one sign of this sort of leak cause in noise inside of the car. I just recently bought a 850 and I can hear what sounds like air coming from the turbo. It is my first car with a turbo so I have no clue what hoses could be leaking
