Default 2g bov

is it really common that a 2g bov would leak after 14 psi on the stock t25? cause i peak boost at 14 and run 13 normal. i cant get any higher then that. everything else is hooked up right too.

exactly what is sounds like. They take a stock metal 1g BOV and crush it down a bit. As you can imagine this is tricky becuase you could ruin the BOV so doing it you have to know what your doing. But done right will allow the BOV to hold boost better.

Not on a 2G. You need a 1G flange to go from a 2G bov. Plus, you'll want to upgrade the UICP to a metal UICP.

A stock 1G bov is known to be capable of 18psi. It depends on the condition and not all 1G bovs are created equal.
I crushed mine to handle 20psi. It could handle more if you do the Dodge Garage Mod too.
