I have the rear bumper off as well as the driver side rear inner fender liner, Just about ready to build a pressure tester to the turbo. Is this the way to do it or is the air box inlet the better option? Thanks in advanced! --Rob

Both ideally

-checking at the turbos will check the DVs
-checking at the airbox inlet will check the inlet piping

If you're just after boost leaks, pressurize at the turbos.
