Mine has the noise too, though I dont have an airfilter an at the mo'!!! so its loud....
any one know what the thing just off throm centre towards passenger side is on fire wall, has two vacumn hoses (think) running to it and a elec wire going eslsewhere? some kind of sender unit? seems to have a black plastic knob on top not sure if adjusts any way??
BOVs? what kind is suited? plumb back?? straight venting? should be OK to just cut out section of the rubber hose on Intercooler and insert a metal bit wit the BOV attached right??

You can run any type of blow off valve on the CityT, only air flow meter equipped engines are sensitive to BOV's. I used to run a cheap and simple bosch one which worked fine and only cost about $60 new. And yes, just insert a metal tee into the rubber 'cooler pipe...
Sorry, dont know what that sensor does off hand.

hi this happened to my t2 aswell. it only hapend when i had an k&n filter on it, when i had the standard filter it does it every so often, though only after giving it shit.
it's proper name is reversion, i read it in a zoom mag it told you every thing about it and even with a blow off valve it still can do it.
thought you might want to know.
thanks kenny
