I was out messing with the car today. I happened to put my hand over the bov and was blipping the throttle. It seemed to be sucking a small amount of air in through the vented 1g BOV. I covered it with my hand to feel the vacume. It didn't seem to be leaking air under a boost test.
This can't be right, I wouldn't think you'd want to be sucking unfilter air into the engine? How do you test a BOV? -------------------- 92 Eagle Talon TSI AWD "The Black Golfball" How fast can a 14B go???
