Default Upgrades are better than repairs...
Saying that you have to make a repair = boring day project, telling your friends to come help with an upgrade and everyone shows up to give a hand.

Default Yes, it was. :)
I think good, used ones of those can be had at Shokan or Force5.

Default That seems like a weak point in the system if there is no upgrade for it.
At the same time it really isnt going to be under pressure like the rest of the intake system.

Default Either that or....
Do you have a boost gauge? Maybe your compressor guage is off. When I dial mine down to 10PSI, it read 18 in the car.
