I've  been chasing a boost leak, and I thinkI finally found it.
Underneath the  intake manifold is a T shaped hose part# 034133367E.
 
Yep... common failure.  Good luck trying to find one.  I have  several on 
order, and they have been for months.  Thinking I'd be better  off to try and 
make one up out of available parts.
 
 

1. best source to get it, sounds like they can be hard to find
 
 
Yup...
 

2. Could this leak be causing my boost to build up slower, as well  as
providing less boost?
 
 
Doubtful... the size of the leak possible from this fitting pales in  
comparison to the volume moved by the turbo.  Obviously, any leak is not  good... but 
I don't think you are going to find a significant (noticeable by  seat of the 
pants) performance gain after you replace it.
 

3. Anyone have a spare?




I wish....
 
HTH,
