Re:bov question?

what type of bov?
it is most likely leaking. cover it at idle and see if the vacuum is normal. also check the tubing you used for cracks/cuts/holes.

Re:bov question?

i dont think its the bov because when i unhook something else like the wastegate or something and hook the bov up it works fine.
