I have off tomorrow so I will try that.
This is such a pain in the ass, though. haha!
Thanks everyone else, bump for more possible solutions.

Is your air filter connected directly to your turbo? Than yes. If you have an inlet pipe, it should be okay, but generally you only want to pressurize the system that sees boost, so you don't pressurize something that's not meant to hold pressure, so hook it directly to the turbo if you can. You probably will want to turn the regulator on your air compressor down to about the amount of boost you run so you don't overpressurize your intake. It will take a little longer to pump up, but better safe than sorry. You can have someone watch your boost guage to see how long it takes to fall off to zero. Basically spray soapy water one whatever sees boost or vacuum.
