Bov leaking Very bad!
Hey I just had a quick question Ive had the boomba bov for exactly 9 months
and have done several boost leak tests. It has performed well until just recently. I did a boost leak test yesturday and noticed that the bov was leaking so bad that it started leaking about 3psi
I removed the bov and saw that the brass piston and the cylinder wall damaged quite a bit making it slide improperly. I just wanted to know what could be done about it or would I have to purchase a new bov or just the top piece and a piston
thanks.
