Default Leaking jets?

Hi Richard. I had the system installed and the installer said he tested for air leaks using 50 psi and there were none. Then, I went for my tune Friday and and they trested for leaks and found one of my 6mm jets was leaking air. It looked to be where the jet screwed into the adaptor or where the adaptor screwed into my top mount.

So they tried welding around the leak and to seal it to the intercooler but this melted the jet. Now they want to order aluminum jets to weld them to my aluminum intercooler.

My installer said there was no way the jets were leaking so I don't know what happened. I thought about it and think I should get two more jets from you and try again rather than welding aluminum jets.

What are your thoughts and have the jets been known to leak when testing for turbo leaks?

Thanks
Gerry
