Make sure the spring is adjusted all the way out, and then turn it back in till it sounds like it works right. It should only open when you let off the gas. Did you actually try driving the car or just revving it in the driveway?

i have tryed it all the way out and all the way in, i have gotten nothing. i can hear the turbo wind down, kind of a fluttering noise. like chi chi chi, and i have tryed doing it while driving and while in my driveway, nothing at all. now if i rev the engine and push the gasket open with something then it blows off. so the valve is working, is the spring to tight in there? cause its really a hard push

Oooo, I've heard about the eBay HKS knockoffs. I also heard that you're supposed to lube it also.....

so what youve heard...is it good or bad....? give an Idea of what kind of quality you are getting...

Yeah put some oil on it. I know my stock BOV made that cahahahah noise, And i know it was working cause my friend reved it up and i could feel the air come out when i pulled it out of the accordian and plugged the hole. But yeah, Put some grease or something on it, And try it on a different vaccum hose. Make sure its one behind the TB though lol. I might get that ebay ssqv clone if you can ever get it to work.

ok so what i have done is cut the spring inside of it. thinking that maby there may have been to much tension on it, and not enough pressure. well its on that track the spring now has about 2 coils cut off of it, and its still not opening. so now what i wonder is where can i buy a spring for the inside of this bov, maby a less tense one. i know hks has one for the racing pop off BOV but not the ssqv. is the spring for the pop off one the same?

oh i also lubed it up and it still would not open up.
