I bet it will be more subtle after the change.

I just got word--the car is ready! I have to call back to ask if anything was determined about the BPV, and I won't be able to get a ride to it until later this afternoon, but good news that the pulley arrived etc.
iphone just go get your car, do some high speed passes and repost your experiences.......... you BPV does however sound faulty on some of the things your saying...... as long as you see good vacuum and no boost leaks, and a good 7psi were good to go!!!! eagerly awaiting your response, its 9.30pm here in the uk so..... ill be checking back reguarly.... im praying your issues are sorted now.... the crank pulley will completely change the experiences youve been having, i did say that all along ;-) this kit will siply not work without the ess billet crank pullies.

btw..... your blower will still sound rattly at idle, some are louder than others :-) my first was near silent, my second one is ALOT louder..... the key is does the noise go with a raised rpm :-) youve already told me it does so your ok..... you'll get used to these noises this blower makes... the rattles, the whistles the pops, the whiirrrrss the whines!!! i love it! lol
