I just installed my Greddy RS bov and it worked fine for the pass 2 days. But y.day at work my boy took it for a run and now for some reason when i romp on it my turbo sounds like it spooling louder than before, such as spooling as loud as a supercharger. When i let off the gas my bov lets off, but then i get a whisles out of it.It sounds alsmost like a boost leak. I looked at it and my valve was still open a little bit. The valve is shutting to late or something. i adjust the bov but still can't figure it out. can ne one help me?

come to find out boost was leaking fine, but it pissed me off so bad that i when to go check the turbo the fins snapped.,. =X it might of sucked something into the turbine and snaped it. for some reseaon i can still drive it but spools like a supercharger. well people call it the dentist drill so the journal bearing are about to go now too... SO looking for a new turbo. thinking of getting a dual ball bearing.. but it costs so much money.

don't take this the wrong way but if you don't know why you blew up your journal bearing turbo I would highly suggest not spending $1200.00 plus on a gt series turbo until you know more about what your doing and getting into. There's a reason why it's not working anymore.
