Fitted my new twister filter today. Really load dumping was good for an hour then lost boost only boosting to 0.5 bar usually 1.4 bar could have gone into limp mode or has my maf finally given up the ghost. will it harm anything if i cont to drive. I know many of you say its really loud with a filter but mine sounded like a blow off valve not a recirc....
Advice very much appreciated.

if you have been moving around by the dump valve make sure you have no pipes coming off it bent or compressed. this would limit the boost. if your running 1.4 bar boost you probably hit limp mode, disconnect battery for 10 mins used to clear mine (when simply turning off the key didn't work)

I will reserve judgement for the mo...
wait and see if it occurs again and then consider a change of filter.
I still cant get over how loud it is it sounds like a dump valve!!! i no i shouldnt complain but im wondering if its this thats causing the issue.
