Whoosh sound and check engine light

Happens all the time I go WOT now.

I think (hope) boost is leaking somewhere.
Given that I already have VRSF charge pipe, any idea of where the boost could be leaking?

Thanks!

Thanks a lot for pointing me in the direction man, I could have a look on both sides! Didn't have to take the bumper cover off. I'm retightening the driver side charge pipe, but the clamp came off the hose on the hot side, before the intercooler.

What a PITA, no room to work on! But I finally got it tight "enough". Will drive and see if it comes off again.

Do you know if they make those connecting hoses with ridges or a lip? The clamp will come off again with a slippery flat hose...

Cheers!
