i was driving along tonight and i got on it in third at about 3000 rpm's and decided it wasnt enough pick-up so i downshifted into second and layed into it then i heard a squelching noise so i let off and gimped her to the closest spot with a street light

i get out and check all of the intercooler lines-intake-blow off lines-
and they all seem to be tight
so i get back in and take off and now if i go over 5psi i hear a loud whistling noise and i gets louder as the boost goes up, so i gimp it to where i am almost home and i get on it to see if there is any perfermance loss and i didnt feel any loss, but the whistle now starts at 3psi, so i at home now and am at a loss for what i could have done

did i just blow off an ic pipe and dont know it??
could there be a hole in the intake??
did i **** up the turbo/wastegate?
or could it be just a minor boost leak somewhere??

i am at a total loss and dont want to hurt her any more if i am at all.
let me know what you guys think
thanks in advance

what size line should i get???

Take some of the line in there with you and tell them it is vacume line. If you are driving your car there, dd, just ask the guy to step out and take a look at the line..
