Re: 16G turbo install
nope, your turbo compensates for the air loss by overspinning the turbo. The turbo works harder to make the same boost, it's hotter air, and you lose a ton of metered air making you run rich which throws a whole new set of problems at the car.
You won't notice it on the gauge unless it's a gaping hole. Boost leaks can make even the fastest DSM's barely move. That's why testing for them is so important.
