Message	some reason it says my lower thread is locked. So, after performing a boost leak today I found air to be escaping through the rear main seal which I already knew was leaking oil. I can't confirm this 100% but I can hear air leaking into the bell housing. I was stupid enough not to change it last time I had the tranny off. My starting issue seems to have been caused by loose connectors to the IACV from the last plenum pull. As far as the actual hissing/exhaust leak sound I'm almost positive it's my pax side turbo. One of the weekends I will remove the downpipe and actually check the shaft from the back. It looks like there is nothing I can do now until I drop the tranny next time. Next time the tranny comes out so does the engine and new turbos go in. Thanks all for the help!
