Boost Leak
HI I’ am new to Porsche world
I bought last week 996 GT2 with Switzer P800 Kit , the car is very clean and it have low mileage .
but it got boost leak and the first owner cannot solve the problem, so I purchased the car from him , I done a Pressure test no leak from the intercoolers & silicone hoses & the throttle body O ring , but So far the air is still leaking , so I took the engine of the body than I done for the second time Pressure test I found the air is coming out of the DRY SUMP OIL TANK from the air vent hose it show at the picture.
so how can I fix the problem , any one can help me ???

Markski one of the better Turbo tuners has been preaching check your boost leaks for years. He has a great procedure for doing so and would be a great place to start. I know he is over on 6sp.
Good luck with the beast! Former 6TT owner here.
