your positive its not leaking? The above is strangly correct though.
the only thing that is for certain is uncertainty

forge, tial, etc... you could crush your 9 bov also and make it hold even more.

For those of us that may be a little DTD when it comes to this, wat do you mean by "crushing" the BOV?

basically you put it in a vice and you crush it slightly. you press the top down causing the internal spring to shorten and increase pressure on the valve.

Theres also other mods you can do also. this mod here works great: http://www.thedodgegarage.com/turbo_bov_mod.html
