So I got done doing a boost leak test today and had a minor leak on my hks ssqv verion 1 bov right on the adjusting screw,added a little threading tape and re did the leak test and used a lttle soap and water and it was good to go but then un covered a massive leak at the bov adapter,Its one of those adapters that take the snap ring,I cleaned it really good with a brush and the rubber o ring is still good Im just wondering since HKS makes good turbo products how this would leak so bad,Does anyone else have issues with there hks products?

O-rings wear/dry out and leak after time. Try replacing it with a new one. Preferably silicone with some silicone grease.
