Change both gaskets, and do another pressure test.


As for the car wanting to shut off when coming to a stop. Check the idle adjustment on the IACV. Just search on how to adjust it. That is most likely the problem.
I did another test. Still have a leak near the turbo. Still won't boost past 5 lbs. I put some stuff called 'stop-a-leak' to help thicken up the oil. The last time I noticed my boost leak test was good was when I had some normal crappy 10w-30 in the engine. Now I am running 20w-50 royal purple so I thought the synthetic was passing through the turbo seal. I notice the engine runs quieter now. My air/fuel ratio numbers seem a little better. While boosting at WOT, I am getting 12-15 a/r. When I let off the throttle, my a/r is like 22. Is that normal when letting off the throttle? This is all new to me

I will check the IACV to see if thats causing any issues and report back when I get the chance.
