It works with standard workshop compressed air to pressurize hoses and intercoolers so you can spot loss of boost pressure, audible leaks, or visible pressure drops, helping you diagnose turbo-related performance issues without removing the whole system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I use the kit to find a turbo boost leak?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSet the regulator to a low test pressure, plug the intake or exhaust ports with the supplied stoppers and attach the correct stepped adapter for the hose diameter.
