Well a combination...I think it's mainly due to the fact that in the vid he's a very low psi, so the boost vacuum transition isn't the best, hence causing the valve to not work correctly...

It' say loosen it up a lil bit...but if you're only at 1psi then it isn't worth it to loosen

i think it's turkeying out at full boost too, cuz whenever i shift, the turbo should stay spooled but when i shift, it drops down to 4psi then spools back to 6lbs. Okay, i'ma tighten it a bit and get back to ya'll later. Thanx Ace

A turbo will loose spool when you shift gears...just a lil...tha sounds normal???


Ensure you have no vacuum leaks, and where do you have your BOV's vacuum source from??

Lastly, do other memembers using the same valve have similar problems or no???

i have no vaccum leaks, spend a good while checking it out. Idle is smooth, so no leaks that i can find. My vaccum source comes from here: The kit comes with a computer module that you need a vaccum source for. So i T'ed off the vaccum hose to the right of the throttle body and T'ed the line off the throttle vaccum to the BOV. The vaccum should be pretty strong. My pillar boost gauge is T'ed off that line too.

Try to elimate so many "T" in your line

Again, I'm not sure at all since I have a Nissan, but don't you have any sources of direct vacuum from your intake manifold???

See my setup is this way

Wastegate Side Nipple is sourced from the compressor housing
Wastegate Top Nipple goes to the Profec Stepper Box
Other side of of the Profec is sourced from the charge pipe before the TB
Boost gauge come from a direct source of vacuum that used to goto the EGR gabarge
BOV is from the FPR line (again, direct from the intake)

In all reality, i'd like to tap my brake booster line for the blow off valve, and elimate the T in my FPR...but even if that T for the FPR has a leak, it will only make the car run rich (vacuum leak at the FPR simulated WOT)
