Hey everyone,

Ive been hearing this rattle coming from my 3SGTE. it starts about 10 PSI, and I think the Boost isn't going past 10-ish PSI as well.


I Have a Blitz adjustable BoV on it just off of the intercooler. now my thought is, the Valve inside, is not able to stay closed at 10-ish PSI and starts to flutter open.

is this possible? is it easy to repair if so?


Thanks,
Kevin

yea, kev, it happens to all of us.

i've had alot of things come loose from not tqing them right, or not using locktite, or a combo of both over the years.

its a good idea after a swap to check things over once a week or so for the first couple of months, just for that very reason.

a VERY good idea. check, check, and double check. if you hear a funny noise/rattle get back to home base quick or have the number of a tow truck.
