if you were in first gear and gunned it it's working right. it is going to be loud thats alot of pressure to bleed off. You need to be in second if your going to nail it.

You may have popped off one of the blue IC pipe connectors and its blowing ALL the air out .

What filter? My Bypass Valve has no filter. I think you're going to have to jack up the car and look underneath to make sure that everything is on tight.

I got it fixed guys it was the coupling next to the bpv it just came apart nissan had my car and they dont know how to do sh** it wasnt even tight. But I did get a new charger for free from them!!!

So the filter that is on my vortech BPV doesnt need to be on there?? I was just wondering I heard that people put them on to quite them down is that true?
