Yep....but it is so much better than not being able to have it at all.

If someone wants to start 3d printing them I'll take 3

I had a old Blitz BOV on my old boat, it leaked "alot" under boost

It was replaced with a Turbosmart one if I recall correctly and the Blitz one went in the bin

You don't have one at all on your car?

Yeah the rally car is off the road until our local motorsport body decide what changes they are going to make to cage regulations, and the one currently on it is cracked after a crash. I do have a lead on one nearby though

What do you mean it leaked under boost? How can you tell?

I had a smoke/pressure test done at Unigroup engineering years ago

That was at least 15 years ago though, my memory ain't what it use to be

I just remember them saying that the Blitz valves were junk and had a bad habit of leaking
