Type S BOV going bad?

[99GST]

For a little while now, when during shifts or throttle releases, by Greddy Type S will give a loud *ping* after air is released.
Boost appears to be holding pretty solid, but I am simply not hearing the same little pssssst that I used to. And it makes me wonder if the spring is a little sprung.

Anyone ever have this problem? I have softened it down alittle and the same noise exists. I think if I harden it (not being preverted here), the sound is a little sharper.

Advice or experiences????

Thanks,
Nathan

How do you have the vacumn lines hooked up on the top of the BOV? There's two nipples, what did you do with them (I'm not being perverted either)? Check out www.vfaq.com and see if you've got it hooked up properly.

I will triple check again, but I am pretty sure they are hooked up correctly. The BOV does release air, and I am not loosing any boost, but it just makes this darn *ping*.

But, I will check again.
Thanks for the tip.
