What happens? HELLO BOOST!!!! :P There will be nothing stopping the turbo from spooling to the maximum amount it is capable of. So, either the motor will blow or you will have one hell of a ride. :)

You might just have to hold it closed. It might be opening even though there is no pressure. I dunno? ??? That's wierd.

It worked fine before you unhooked it? I can't see why the pressure would drop. What about the BOV? ???
