Default Why not to use quick dry JB Weld.

The funny part is that I still get 6psi and I can still here the PSSSSHhh blow off noise (though not as loud).

This could be a new discovery, if you want to lower your boost, have the blow off noise, eliminate compressor surge, and are to cheap to buy a blow off valve, just drill a 1 inch hole in your upper charge pipe.

Take that bitches.

there are two styles of the binary epoxy product be JB.

JB Quick

JB Weld

in no way is JB Quick considered "quick dry" maybe you didn't allow for proper curing?

the JB quick is supposed to "cure" in 4 minutes that's why I call it quick dry but I let it sit overnight. I just re-JB'd it with the other kind. The quick ---- just peeled off with a screwdriver. mabye I didn't guess right when I mixed it. Whatever, hopefully this time it will hold.
