Vera they can be hard to spot especially if it leaks under pressure you may not see it. Get a really decent torch and a fine toothcomb.

Smoke but no loss in performance? Sounds like the turbo is still working and the MAF is registering a load of air and fuelling accordingly, but for some reason the air is not getting into he mix.

Found it. Bolt coming through from the wing has punctured the hose to the inter cooler from the turbo. Has caused a 1" gash in the hose. At least now I know
