Default Code 3, check valves??

Hey guys, I think I might be having some on/off issues with my check valves.

The other day I got a code 3 on the ECU when I hit boost, the car also was on the verge of stalling. I poped out the check valves and one seemed to be getting stuck. My question is if the check valve gets stuck open would the car almost stall at idle? I guess it would run like I had a vacum leak?

Im also running 3 Check valves, could I run 4?

Also whats this Missing link I heard about? How does it hook up? Wheres the best place to get one?

This is a Greddy turbo "92-95 Civic kit" on a ZC engine, thanks

the missing link is a billet solution to all those pesky check valves (that sounds like a sales pitch) it works great... you can get them from importparts.com

doesn't anyone realize that the Missing Link IS a check valve? The only difference is that it's made of metal and has a thicker surrounding molded to fit under your sensor. A great piece I think!
