    pressure test

    Anyone have an air compressor that I could use for an hour or so to do a pressure test on my car?

    I can go build a pressure tester if you don't have one already - I just need a place to do the test since I'm in an apartment and don't have acess to a garage or anywhere to do a pressure test around here.

    I've already done a pressure test once, I just need to check to see if my fix solved all leaks or if I made more, heh.

    Let me know - I can provide beer or whatever if you're willing to help

    I'm sure someone can help, but I live in an apartment too and just use a small compressor to test.

    You can leave it in your trunk if they have policies about mechanical work in your parking spot.

    not a bad deal... i think I discovered what my problem is though after reading a little more tonight... the previous owner had installed an N75 J valve - the "race" version of the valve, which my AWE tune isn't made for - hence the reason why my boost is oscillating and spiking like crazy. I just orderd the stock N75 B valve, so we'll see if that takes care of it. Thanks for the link though!
