dsm bov doesnt have a rubber O ring around the piston like the type s does but i doubt thats why your leaking boost....do you have the gasket for the dsm bov to dsm flange? maybe u dont have one

ive ran 3 different 1st gen dsm bov's and never had a problem with any of them. I dont think its the bov thats leaking.
