Nothing for sure wrong here. Might just be that way, especially if your revving at an idle.

Your not gonna get a loud BOV by just reving the car because you dont build much boost

Yeah its recirculated and yeah I want really sure cuz it has been a while since its ran right and just seems louder than normal, might be normal. Im just trying to get it to run right so hopefully I can trade it in for an evo

Yeah I drove my car tonight and it was fine. Its weird, I tried driving the thing on the highway, and once it spooled up to 1.5 on my gauge, it wads only at 4500rpm's and it would sputter for a second and then I would move up 500rpms and do it again and again. I thought maybe too much boost but my mbc is all the way open
