Default Dump-Valve Problem

hi there i currently have a sequencial HKS dumpvalve. the problem i am getting is that on low boost eg anything under 10psi it flutters and only over 10psi will it dump with the dump valve.

Just wondered if anyone has any ideas.

Yep, put the standard unit back on and save yourself a load of hassle

Stiff spring could be the issue by the way.

You can fit a recirc type on a front mount mate. PM Alcazar on here. He has one on his FMIC

Exactly.

What model and year?
I come across more problems with BOVs relating to HKS and Blitz than all the other BOVs I come across, excepting cheapo e-Bay copies.
With model and year I might be able to give you some advice and replumbing to recirc is not an issue.
