Default My BOV whistles after blowing off??
Well, I finally got the Greddy Type-S to keep in boost, but now it whistles. I will be out of boost or have just blown off, and am off throttle, when I hear the bov give a faint whistle like a squeaking noise. It goes Psssssssst......wheeeeew. I think it might be the vacuum source (FPR). anyone heard this before?

The Adjustment screw on the top is probably too tight.

Mine does that sometimes. Try loosening it.

I actually called Greedy and they said it was normal. I don't like it though.
