Pour water over the inlet manifold and see if it changes.

I think I found the leak, that big vacuum plug was loose . Can't be sure until I start it up again .

Need to bleed the clutch ,tighten tail shaft bolts and few other things and its ready for a tune .

Found the leak , it was the hole left from the butterfly runner shafts , used a 8 mm bolt with the thread cut off and silicon to plug it .

Thanks mate i hope it goes well , engine runs well except its rich and idle hunts no knocks or weird noises, Will be much better than a t5 . The shifter feels a lot firmer and gears when shifting feel closer .
My only worry is the plenum I have a feeling it may split the weld across the top under boost .
Unless 16 psi isn't much pressure inside the plenum . And it will only be on boost for 10-15 seconds at a time .
