Blow off or Compressor surge
Put my kit on yesterday finally (Pics up sometime this week) I have an HKS SSQV I got cheap from some kid along with his IC piping. I can't tell if it is blowing off. I mean, I am only running 5 psi but... I thought they were louder. It makes a little bit of a blow off sound but then I hear the turbo spool down like on a Semi as if the pressure wasn't released. It was really tight so I loosened it a lot, it isn't leaking but it still isn't very loud if it's working at all. Thoughts? Ideas? Thanks.

Re:Blow off or Compressor surge
Nonvtec, I'm running the same BOV and had the same problem. I'm boosting 10-11 psi and it's still fairly quiet. It screams when your on the highway ripping through the gears at full boost though. I had alot of compressor surge as well with it straight out of the box. I had trimmed about 2 coils off of the spring that was in mine in order to get to stay open a little longer. I still get a little flutter of compressor surge under light throttle, but I don't beleive it's doing any harm.
Ask hotrex what it sounds like, he went for a rip in my Integra. Got that bitch sideway's and almost made Josh ---- his pants. lol
