    Probably the stock BOV.

    Could also be a bad check valve on the clutch booster or the brake booster. Need more info on where the noise is coming from like Stealthee said.

    Best way to tell if it's a boost leak is to pressure test the system. That will tell you if your bov is f'd or if you have any other leaks. The clutch booster/brake booster is also another good possibility Like Doc said. But test the system and see what you get. Also videos always help.

    You can buy a pressure tester for 3sx. It goes in the intake bubble it's self. Pretty easy process. There should be something on stealth316.com
