Ok, so I think I know what you mean now..so you're pressurizing through the
turbo inlet, and you can hear air hissing into the disconnected (from the
turbo) rubber airflow meter boot.  Yes, so you need to isolate the only connections
therein, one of which is the ISV, take it out and plug the intake side (like
with a screw driver handle or similar), now pinch off one hose at a time until
you hear the air leak change, etc.  Also pinch off crankcase breather, etc,
eliminate one at a time, etc.
