Default Greddy Type S

Hey i installed my greddy type s with a flanged upper intercooler piping. im pretty sur ei have everything connected right and shit. But it cant be because when i drive it, in some gears it will not accelerate anymore and it will make a kinda horn honkling noise. My guess is somthing is bleeding...

I have my stock airbox in. And with that upper intercooler piping i could only get 1 of 3 screws that connect to the airbox in. My final guess about what is wrong is that that box needs to be completely screwed down because its not able to suck enough air through the air box? i dont know man. Could anybody help me out please?

Thanks in advance.

BOV adjustment screw is possibly too lose causing a boost leak. or you may have a leak somewhere else.

u have the gasket right(for the greddy vavle)? if u dont go get one, and get rid of that dam airbox.....a hornhonking hmmm that doesnt sound like a boost leak. also oil will come out of the shitty plastic oil caps, best to go get another one at advance or something. but yes also test for leaks cause they can do some funky stuff, that leak could be y you can accellerate anymore.

Im pretty sure thats it. The gasket thing. Where can i get a greddy type s gasket? Can i just hit up discount autoparts and grab that flat gasket cut out shit and glue it on the flange or the bov?

Lemme know. Im pretty sure its a leak between flange and BOV.
