You run a boost leak test. Very simple device with a air compressor is used to determine if there are boost leaks. If you live in the San Fernando Valley, I can help you determine a leak.

How are you guys finding boost leaks with the HKS valve.* From what I understand, there is no way for the valve to leak under acceleration/boost.* The valve itself is a push/pull design, which means that it can only open under partial/total lift off from acceleration.* Am I confused?
