It doesnt leak, its almost impossible for it to as its a pull type bov. The old/knockoffs leaks as they were so old and needed a rebuild. but since hks stopped selling the rebuild kit people would sell them for cheap and get a new ver2 or 3.

As you fellahs can see by confirmation, the BOV is not the cheap version that has caused issues.

The HKS sucks for driveability. I had the same one, and it caused me to overboost. Sounds cool though lol. It also caused issues on my friends VIII. I will never install another HKS BOV on my car. I loved my Tial, and I should have never sold it.

Yeah that is how it was set up. But my Tial was set up the same way and I had no drivebility issues.
