Could someone tell me if its normal to have no BOV sounds with car at park while reving after FBO install?

all stock with BOV i used to hear the whoosh just revving, now with DPs, FMIC, DCI...no sound, only during driving? when i run hard i can see the boost gauge holding boost? is this normal, do i have a leak somewhere?

Try revving the engine and let off, then quickly give it a "stab"(before the revs drop) and release the throttle again. It should blow off.

alot of cars dont build boost while in park, im not sure if it builds boost in neutral or not though.

our cars build a very small amount of boost without load. You gotta rev it up pretty good to hear anything though.

You need load to build boost. It's probably harder to hear the small amount of pressure generated now while in park revving.

Ya its kinda crappy when im in park or in N. its like a tiny whistle.

Then put it in drive and hold the brake and gas to spool it.....

If you start at idle and go WOT quickly till about 4-5000RPM and then let off quickly you should get about 2-4psi.

Double tap WOT, yes.

Very true.

Thanks Guyz, makes sense.

[Brey335i]

I can hear mine very clearly if I put it in N and rev it.

[eaglesfan83]

I hear my Synapse loud and clear while parked and in N (6MT)

[neilvosko]

i realized that you can hear it when it worms ups, not cold.

thanks guyz.

[335iJWC]

You shouldn't go wot, while cold but it should still be audible
