I would check the brake booster vac lines. They are prone to crack with age.

Yup, one part connects near the right of the fuel pump.
The one on my car had developed some cracks and was contributing to a boost leak, another symptom was less effective brakes.

Ok. Ill check that today. Thanks for that.
Still looking for other feedback.
I know the pics are hard to read but does anything look bad?

Update: traced everything and found nothing. Pulling the entire front clip off tomorrow to see if i can spot anything with the cooler or lines around there.

Ripped the front end off today to check the cooler. No holes that i saw. Rechecked all the lines. Found a few suspect as shown in the pics. Nothing perforated but did see some bulging a bit as you can see. Also the coolant outlet from the turbo leaks a bit. Ive cleaned it a few times. And took the pics after cleaning today. But when i squeeze the hoses at the connection they have play and seem to not seal completely. Not sure if thats normal though. Last thing that is suspect was one of the lines behind the turbo. The one that goes to the oil pan has a crushed in side to it. Its one that has the metal casing around it. Forgot to take a pic.
Last thing i did was replace the o ring and reseat the bsh pcv cap.
Drove it and still only getting max of 13-14 psi.
Reset the code but sure it will come back.
Need a new turbo?
Or is one of these suspects more likely?
