ok i think i finally routed the actual area...i seem to be getting my vacuum primarily from the power steering valve (?) does this part tend to go bad after a while and where can i get a hold of one?
good info here.. i have that same air leaking sound around the intake manifold and was wondering if it would be the gasket itself, i'll have a look at it
so i routed the problem to this area (big bolt area)... Image Hosting
this is how i found that out, i unplugged the BOV hose while car was on and no effect (no vacuum either) after about 5 minutes, it starts sucking air in which led me to that area above ^^

yes gosh, im absolutely positively sure the engine is running...if i can hear my exhaust, hear the engine roar, and the car is moving it's running right? LOL

thank you sir, ill follow up after testing...
LOL @ last part... i made sure to fire it up ...just bought the car like a month ago, new to this scene (don't suggest me to buy a honda, already got one) ha
please elaborate...the way i check for vacuum is by pulling all the vacuum hoses and see if any air is being sucked in and there is none anywhere (up until vacuum returns after about 5 minutes)
most of the time now when i go to start up, my car has no vacuum (i have verified by unplugging vacuum hoses and boost gauge reads 0)..it takes 5 to 10 minutes for it to get vacuum...i don't know where to even start with this one...
finally signed up! looking forward to tons of info and some help with this beastly car...i've owned for a little over a month, still can't get it quite right, but it's fun.
