send it in to Vortech to get rebuilt, will cost anywhere from 50-150 depending on the damage. Mine went out after 4 years about 2 months ago and sent it in for a rebuild and had it back in a week. Even had the origianal blue housing changed to red, for under 150.

Well I reseated the O-ring and installed the BPV. The car sounds and feels better. I'll see if this happens again, and if it does then I'll send it back to Vortech.
