Boost leak

I have a boost leak and I can’t find it.

The turbo elbow was loose so I tightened it up and I can still turn the nuts but I’m worried I might be stripping it or the stud it started to turn, I can’t tell. I’m putting alot of torque on it to make them still move but normally they’d stop but they keep on going.

It seems to be coming from near the turbo inlet. I pressurized it and tried spraying soapy water everywhere and i can sometimes hear the water leaking over the leak and making the bubbling sound but can’t see shit. I think it still might be the turbo elbow that its not sealing.

Any tips on finding this little fucker? I’m supposed to be going to Dunnville this Sunday but if I can’t fix it I can’t go.

i had this problem yesterday, i thought i had tightened the bolts but the bracket just kept stripping, trying changing those little brackets on the hoses… near the bov is where my problem was. cause even if they feel tight. they might be stripped and fucked up.
