Re: do i need a new engine?
correct the platinums are horrible under boost.
Second easiest way to check for a boostleak is make a boost leak tester. Take off the intake and get a pcv plastic cap that you can put a valve stem on it and clamp it to the turbo and pressurize the system listen for leaks. You can also pressurize with smoky air and look for where it escapes as well. I made this video of what it should look like
