I think we would need more specifics like, what are you doing when does it happen, when do you notice it not happening. Does is only happen when you do a certain action (i.e. on the gas a little, WOT, at idle), etc???? Does the car ride differently, does it stumble down the road when you here this leak??

More specifics please. The more you provide the better these guys can help you.

I have a similiar problem. in 2nd through 4th and 5th when I punch it. i hear a wooshing from the engine bay. It's definetely a boost leak. take off your belly pan and get under there check all hose connections around the turbo and intercooler, replace the clamps if necessary. are you chipped? my hose blew off my turbo because it was pushing too much pressure and the clamp couldnt keep it on there. but it made the noise for a while then finally just blew off and I couldnt keep the car running. check it out and let us know what you find.
