Description:
Boost leaks big and small can rob your engine of power, spike EGT's and effect the overall performance of your diesel truck.
Even the most skilled installers can create a boost leak somewhere in the system. This detector fits on the inlet of the turbo. You will use your current clamp for your air intake to connect this detector to the turbo. Pressurize the system all the way on the gauge with an air compressor, and then close the fill valve. The needle should take about 45 seconds to drop down to zero. If it goes faster, you might have a leak. Often times the boost leak will make a loud squeal and then you will have to chase it down with your ear. Putting soap and water in a spray bottle can help you find slow boost leaks. Just spray the solution on boots, intake manifold gaskets and any other connection point to visualize the air leaking.

Found where the leak was on the truck where the turbo was concerned and was a quicker way to find the turbo leak then it would be the other way great value for the price
Found boost leak immedietly with this kit.
needed to go buy a 1" nipple and 90 degree elbow so I could see the gauge when it was hooked up to my 01 7.3
It found a leaky hose fitting and block off plug with small leaks.
Looks great and can’t wait to try it out, but first I have to go to the store and buy a 4” hose clamp so I can use it.
Would have gladly paid the few extra dollars for another clamp to be included in the kit.
Going to cost more in gas to buy a cheap clamp.
Come on KC, you’re better than this!!!!!!
Tried making my own before and it just wasn’t as solid. This is a great tool that’ is a must for figuring out boost leaks!
