losing boost
morning all, i have fitted a aftermarket dv to my type r. now when driving it normally ishe is fine and i can just about here the valve releasing to the air not to loud, just about right. but when iam boosting it, i loose boost when changing gears so i take my foot of the gas i hear the dv, change gears and when i reapply the gas i can hear the dv relesing more air..
....any idea why this is and how i can fix it or do i just need to buy a new dv....i thought the dv would only release the air when i take my foot of the gas???

If there was nothing wrong with the valve you took off, no, you don't have to dip back in your pocket. Just refit the standard one.
