Boost leak or something

When I make a right hand turn and get on the gas (not a stomp but under boost) I hear a boost leak/dump sound.

The kind of sounds like when I let off the gas.

Turning left nothing, turn right I can make it happen.

Weird

dsc may be bleeding boost since you may be losing traction.

I tuned it off (holding the button down) and it still does it.
I did install a FMIC this winter. I just is weird it only does it turning right.

I can stomp on it and turn left and it doesn't make the same sound as turning right.


I hate to bring it to the dealer as I am sure they will blame my CAI it FMIC.

I guess I can pull the bumper to recheck the hose connections.
