while under the bonnet i noticed the hex bolt (circled and labeled A) was loose
figured i must be losing boost pressure so tryed to tighten it but no joy
popped off the other bolt and pulled it all apart and discovered the green o ring was missing a section (labeled b) and that seals part C
so i resealed it all with locktight seal
and put a screw in the air duct to the air filter to stop it coming apart
hopefully it help proformance and mpg abit hard to tell on a short trip with a cold engine but there has to be a disadvantage to a leaking turbo
