so it seems that the common old as soon as you add a fun mod to something something functional breaks... gremlin is having it's way with the truck.
so i got the ficm tuner in last week and the guages. well now i've been progressively loosing boost, jake brake(sct tune add in) has lost stopping power and a very definite change in sound of air leak, along with more a longer smoke clean up time at wot.
at start up idle(only time i really wanna be running my hands around exhaust components feeling for leaks) i cant feel any "drafts" but i can feel it in the butt dyno and above statements are leading me to my best probable cause.
so the question i have is where to go for the up pipes?
