bov is removed,
I have a straight pipe to the IM,

we can put are hands over the inlet of the turbo & the car dies..

I just took it for a drive & boosted 2psi & still have the bov sound,
I also have a new sound that just popped up,
sort of a hollow air sound,(I believe coming from the WG)

I will now block off the WG,again
btw,the WG has been disconnected the whole time.

or actually,I might take the WG (top) off to see whats inside...

I put the WG back together,
started the car,
I ended up putting my fingers up inside the dumptube & felt quiet a bit of air coming out....

blocking off or taking off the WG will be my next routine...with the bov still off

I dont think I paid attention when I installed it on,
but I gotat stop & buy a thin socket to get to the bolt holding on the WG,
or I can take my radiator out to get to the bolt,
I'll do this tomorrow & that should be my last resort

thanks to everyone who helped!!

You have a seriously good attitude, and you're willing to put in the work required to learn.

You need to build many, many more cars pls.
