I am Currenly running in my STi8 PPP and it has 800miles on the clock, and i have noticed recently that you can hear the dump valve dumping the boost on Gear change is this normal ???

I would not expect to have heard this as i thought that the boost was recirculated and not dumped to Atmosphere??

Any thoughts, could there be a hose off somewhere??
