My Civic has recently started to sound like it’s pushing air out of the Boomba BOV Installed. After accelerating to about 2500-3500 RPM the turbo spools normally. Does t happen constantly it’s hit or miss. Took it to the dealer and they said no codes fired, no vacuum leaks, however they decided to change the fuel injectors(on warranty). I’m not sure if I have a bad BOV or boost leak at the BOV. Has anyone experienced this?

Why? I’m just curious
If you have read anything on BOV for our car, you would know the defects. Read up on your aftermarket parts before installing them. It's not a good idea to just blindly buy a part and slap it on. I'm not gonna explain it. Just search BOV in the search bar and you will get instant answers.

BOV makes your car run rich, which is veeeery bad over time. Pretty sure they deleted their bov post cause it was getting too much negative comments
