I just presumed it was an IAT thing however during a health check at a handling/tuning specialist one of the mechanics spotted that my charge pipe is missing a 6mm screw, therefore it's supposedly leaking boost like crazy.

Can anyone confirm where this 6mm bolt sits? I checked with the mechanic on the phone that he didn't mean the unused meth port which is bunged up, but he was adamant it's a small screw/bolt that was missing.

The garage I use now is super trustworthy, they are on the ball and super honest, whereas the garage I used for my charge pipe 2 years ago unplugged my thermostat in hopes I would return for more work.. so it wouldn't surprise me I just can't see anything on the cp diagram as to where it would screw in.
there are sometimes two bungs and then you have the screw holes for the map sensor.

did they replace the screw or just give uou vague info and send you on your way? lol
