At the same time I was checking that out, I noticed that the BOV would barely open to release the air. The car seems restricted through the turbo and I am not getting the power out of it that I should be, and I think this is where the problem is coming from (the BOV not opening).
The air I am hearing seems to actually be inside the intake itself..the throttle body maybe? I hope this helps clear things up a bit..

Is your BOV adjusted? IE did you set the spring tension using the screw on top?
When you say intake, do you mean the intake manifold or the intake itself? Because the TB is on the intake manifold. But that is a very large possibility if you are getting a leak that it could be from a TB leak. Take some either soapy water or some brake or carb cleaner and spray it on the cracks and seals of the tb and intake manifold.(Basicly anywhere it connects to something else, or has a gasket etc.) IF it bubbles that is where your leak is at.
