    Whipple blow off/ bypass valve.

    anyone know if there is a way to adjust the blow off/bypass valve on my whipple? ive done a bunch of searching on the web and called them at whipple and wasnt able to get any info's'

    i just got my boost gauge in and its making 5psi. but unless im totally in it the boost bleeds off almost immediately like the bypass/blow off is super touchy or some shit.

    You should only see positive boost when you are at or very close to WOT. As soon as you let off WOT, even a little bit, your boost should drop significantly (especially if you're only making 5psi under peak boost). I'd say it sounds normal?

          If you are still under vacuum then the bypass is open, bleeding off boost. I'd say it is perfectly normal mang.

            Just unhook the vacc line from the bypass reg, ziptie the valve closed and let me know what happens.
