Yes and Yes.... Take it from me, I have has every boost leak known to man in this car and it runs 1000 times better now. Yes the ported getup helps (100mph trap with full use of only 2 gears, yes it works!)
Check everything. Exhaust leaks aren't good either...
I now know how to boost leak propertly. But Im sure some fellow forum member is in your neck of the woods.
I just did a leak test at my shop....but I have a huge 150 gallon tank....so I cant do a leak-down test...I just continually run the air @ 20 psi and look for the leaks. Is that ok? I have a ton up air blowing up through the engine bay...looks like its the hotside ic pipe...and the coldside. I tried to tighten the clamps..but didnt work. HELP!
