blow off valve not blowing off??

well i recently did a few free mods to my car and found a few hoses that were not connected to anything so i found where they went plugged em in. I also found that the BOV pipe that vents into the intake wasnt tightend down with the clamp. i tightened that up ( after cutting down the pipe inside the intake) and now i cant hear my BOV at all.???

Hey you're not alone, i did the same thing and had a similar experience. after i was done, i did notice it was a little bit quieter as well. maybe it was that. But it got louder again once i got a hardpipe for the intake piece. Plus a new greddy bov is on its way anyway.

it did that because you tightened up the hose so air COULDNT get out. Don't tell anyone but you heard it because air was escaping . Again I didn't tell you this

makes sense haha

i know how they work.........except that there is NO sound at all....even if i let off after FULL throttle.

Doing this will quiet down the sound.

Keep it up and ask your turbo how he feels choking on his own compressed hot air !

Did you make sure and hook up the vacuum nipples? Because if they arent hooked up the BOV won't work.
