102644, bov leak..is this normal?
Posted by spooled420, Jan-28-08 12:58 PM
well at idle i put my hand over my greddy bov and feel air coming out and lately when i hit the gas my cars seems to fall on its face at wot,I was thinking this might be because my turbo's has extremly bad shaft play and giving out but now im thinkin its because my bov is leaking,Its holds boost ok though so im kinda confused...help

BOV's usually stay open at idle a little bit. Mine always have (Type-S, 1g BOV, TurboXS RFL)
