Ok, I just had my engine rebuilt and I'm wondering if the BOV is leaking.

The boost gauge reads normal, up to 12psi at WOT. But it sounds weird. Almost like air is escaping from the BOV. Kinda like the air is flowing from under the glove box.

It's still got the stock 2g BOV, but I've got IC piping and a 1G to replace it with this weekend, which brings me to my next question. How can I test the 1G BOV I've got at home?

Thanks!
 
The 2G BOV WILL leak boost at 12PSI or higher. Get that 1G BOV on there.
