Re: bov's

Sounds like you've def got a boost leak somewhere. Try doing a pressure test. You can get directions on www.vfaq.com just use soapy water and look for bubbles. If you have a leak anywhere, most likely around the bov, it will bubble. Then do whatever is necessary to fix it. All depends on where it is.

I'm in the army, currently depolyed to the wonderful country of kosovo. Been here for 8 months.. still not sure what we're doin. But hey I get paid!

Re: Re: bov's

what do you mean when you say 'put them both on'? are you alternating using them? are you on stock intercooler piping? are you venting to the atmosphere? you can adjust the type-s clockwise to tighten it. tighten it all the way and start from there. what other mods does it have in the intake area? what kind of air filter is on it? you might be hitting boost cut because of a filter problem. just some questions that might help to clarify your problem.
