great so today after my girlfriend took my car out for a oil change. she came back with my bov mounted up to my top mount. so i was like great blah blah blah. took the car out for a spin and just heard a whoosh no high chirp like the hks suppost to have. check the welds they where good.. looked at the line hook up for the bov and im guessing it was right..any solutions for my girls great work.

Meaning he put A hks bov on, not HIS hks bov.

i was about to suggest that the spring was too weak for the amount of air pressure (same thing happened to mine) put more washers in there to strenthen the spring and all better!


Thats the best thing about the hks. There are no springs or washers to adjust. Boost actually pushes WITH the diaphragm to help seal it closed. The more you boost, the harder it seals!

You want power but have no money. That's a problem.

Cheap. Reliable. Fast. Pick two.
