From: somewhere testing various tires, brakes, and suspensions.

If you car is stock, why the IC? Really not needed unless you have better turbo and whatnot.

the problem was a loose clamp on the upper intercooler pipe leaking under full boost. Since changing the clamp i have had no issues. The HKS bov works great. i have a tune. the bov doesnt flutter and it doesnt bog between shifts. The car is running great at 20 lbs of boost. thanks for all the help guys.
