Default BOOST LEAK

well our favourite Canadian has a boost leak.....
the turbo is a air-research turbo from a saab basicly a t3 with a 42.48 AR.
"There are four holes, one on each corner of the centre section, it appears as though there was supposed to be something there, but its not there, and wasn't there when i got the turbo from a friend. The one hole, and possibly the one on the other side leaks oil when you rev it up, pretty bad actually." --Spenser--

So all Canadians have bad luck.
AH I'm cursed till the bitter end!

That basically keeps the center turbine housing secure.
That'd def create a problem under any load/
