Message First of all the my car does not run well. The engine runs ok but boost is lacking. The main syptmom is if you put your hand on each exhaust tip when the car is idling, the passenger side is normal, in a pa-pa-pa-pa pattern, while the driver side is just a steady stream of considerably hotter exhaust. Any ideas what could cause this? The turbos have 130K miles on them so it might be that time, however they are not producing smoke.

Also, on the driver side there is a connector not connected to something. It is branched off the EFI harness just hanging down and if you look from straght above it is a little to the front of the brake master cylinder. According to the manual it is the P.R.V.R. control solenoid valve. For the life of me I cannot find any place at all where this pugs into. Any tips where this goes would be great.
(it might be the old sensor for stock suspension, it is white/faded yellow and is probably 3/4in square but I don't think it is)

I performed a boost leak test and found a couple clamps to tighten, however there are still a couple almost-inaudable hissing sounds at 15psi.

All cylinders are running too.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
