So I was driving my car one day and it was fine, the next day I start it up and its running fine then the car has no power it feels like and there is a loud woosh noise coming from under the hood. When I checked under my hood I grabbed the dv's and noticed that they were loose and weren't sitting right in the charge pipe...would this be the problem? Do I need to get a new charge pipe since the dv's must not be sitting right in it?

Thanks

are you modded? the problem seems to be the DVs and not the charge pipe.. make sure they're clipped in correctly.

I have JB2 but when i looked under the hood the gray clips on the charge pipe were cracked and pieces were missing I don't know how that happened...

Common problem if you are modded. Stock DV's only can hold up to 12lb boost then they start leaking. Also later you may run into the charge pipe popping off and that is a b#$ch to put back on. After a couple of times I gave up and bought a Stett charge pipe with BOV...

WTH? anyone tinkering around with your car lately? Seems like you may need new DVs then.

That's my setup (ER Charge Pipe and Forge DVs).. I love it.

BS on DV's, however charge pipe may blow off.

This all depends.. my stock DVs did blow of, as soon as I hit 16+ PSI.

would this cause turbo lag as well?
