well.. after driving around for about 30 mins on saturday, I noticed my bov wasnt sounding anymore.. Then the power went down as well.. I can hear air somewhere, when accelerating hard, and I can hear a rush of air when the bov should be going off, but it isnt coming from the bov, I'm sure of that... The boost gauge shows 5 psi, and the fuel pressure is good..
I checked the lines from the bov to the tb, and there doesnt seem to be any problem.. the only thing I can see is where the turbo connects to the downpipe, there is a small gap between the two where exhaust blows out.. could that be causing my problem? If so, how do I tighten it? there are no nuts, its a stud that goes through the two, I dont see how its supposed to be tightened..
sorry for the long story, but please help if you can!

I'm running without one at the moment. It'll probably warp the flanges or something eventually. Right now, I just get the "brap brap brap" exhaust leak sound and an occasional CEL at idle.
This is the part you need from HRC: H TZ-9125 Gasket, 2" turbine outlet, Super 16G and 20G $5.00
