I just installed my 14b turbo, and went to install my 1g BOV. When I installed it it boost's up well past my boost level. I install the 2g one and it boost's perfect and holds solid. Does anyone know what could be causing this problem, and I already checked for leaks and there is none. Thanks alot
 
My first thought is that the 2g BOV is leaking down to your desired boost level, while the 1g BOV isn't leaking, giving you the full boost that the turbo is producing. Try turning your boost level down with the 1g BOV on and see if you can get it under control.
 
Yeah that is what a couple buddies told me, but I dont have a boost controller installed yet. I didnt want the 2g bov to start leaking so I never installed my boost controller yet. I did another boost leak test today just to see if I missed any, and the 1g gasket was leaking so I am going to order a gasket for it and hopefully that fixes my problem. Which it should. Thanks alot for the response.
