Message	Ok so an update on my issue, unfortunately the shops compressor broke down so I wasn't able to put 5 psi into the intake, but I did blow into the tube as hard as I could, lol. Yeah I know, I know. Anyway, just by blowing into the tube I could hear a very obvious leak coming from the back of the engine near the top. My hoses are brand new as I replaced them during the last plenum pull. I wasn't able to pinpoint it though, I will get a compressor and do this properly again. Any idea what could be the issue back there?

I have - YlwPrlZTT 19:30:24 06/22/16 This doesn't sound like a significant (air) leak. - OverZealous (CT) 09:29:25 06/27/16 I resealed my pax side intake valve cover and the VTC - YlwPrlZTT 17:23:39 06/27/16 Good luck!
