I also noticed that my Turbo gauge does not go all the way at Full Throttle. It only goes up to 3/4 or something.

I think it should go all the way to Max when at full throttle !

Is it related to the vacuum leak ?
I believe 3/4 is full boost; gauges are typically designed to read within their upper and lower limits under normal conditions.

It’s possible for a vacuum leak to affect boost, but IWE leaks are typically after the check valve, so boost should not bleed off.

Today I replaced the IWE Check valve and went for a drive. I was disappointed to hear the exact same clicking sound at full throttle. :(

Any recommendations ?

That clicking sound is still there. I'm hoping someone can pinpoint me where and what I should look to find the source of this clicking sound.

Did you ever find out what was happening? I think I'm encountering the same issue.
