I understand where everybody is coming from, to start things off my WG is not located at the factory position, and once the boost solonoid and utec were installed It held 9.5 psi all the way to 5000 rpms and car ran great. What I don't understand is How did this just randomly come up???? All of the info is out on the table. THIS HAPPEND RIGHT AFTER the injectors were installed the car was on for a while and then the light came on. The reason why a leakdown test wasn't performed is because the tuner said he would find a exact answer with the engine out and apart, a leakdown would just tell the area. And the feel that the area is already determined and that is the piston.

you were doing a leak down test on the seals of your compression tester, lol, not the cylinder.
