I suspect i have a leak all be it small somewhere between the turbo and the manifold but havent been able to find it any problem areas to look at first.

Yup, check the pipes, as i have just cleaned out my intercooler and changed the pipes for silicone versions, and my elbow one was cracked, but not all the way through...but not good to have. Also rev the engine whilst head in bonnet and see how much the top pipe expands might need to change that too...
