Boost Tester DIY | How To Test For Boost Leaks

- Here is a quick DIY or How to video I put together to help save a few bucks while testing for boost leaks in our turbo systems. You can find these pre-made and online starting from like $50 all the way to $275.00. This kit I put together cost me around $7.00 and now I can put the rest of the money that was going to go towards purchasing a pre-made to more mods down the road.
Later in the video I demonstrate my approach for testing for leaks using soapy water in a spray bottle while running a air compressor around 15 PSI. This helped me tremendously and ended up finding two leaks and now that I detected them, no more leaks. This is added assurance that our turbos are working efficiently, after all that is why we drive them is for towing and hauling so we need to make sure we have all the boost we need and nothing is being lost.
I hope this helps save some cash as well as how to test for boost leaks.

Most diesel pickups run well over 15-20 psi boost.. I do 10 psi over what your max boost is. Also, I might add, a boost leak will ruin your turbo
Nice! Thanks for the video!
Hate!!!!! to say this. But, I love this guy. You rule. I thank you from all of us.
(But, we could do with out the music
Thanks for watching, and your comment, just livening up the video. I hope it helped in someway. Be sure to subscribe.
What size rubber adapter are you using and where did you find it? Thank you.
Should it stay pressurized when the air is shut off? Mine begins losing pressure right after I shut the air off
Can’t hear his voice with that music
Do you want to be doing at least 30 psi. 40 would be best
@@user-ds2kq7no3l PSI can range. Ex: I was pulling my 14,000 lb trailer yesterday driving slightly uphill and I was around 24 PSI.
Where did you get these tire valves ?
Autozone
What size is that black boot? The ones i saw at lowes didn't seem to fit
Nevermind i thought it was a semi, i need 5"
Does not test boost, this is a test for leaks.
