boost question

I have a 10-8-10 pattern, but it seems like my blow off valve sounds MUCH weaker when the second turbo is spooling. Is this normal?

I know I'm getting enough boost from my second turbo because my gauge is reading 10 lbs., but it just sounds like theres almost nothing coming out of the blow off valve on release.

Also, on an unrelated note, my car also seems to perform much more slowly and sluggishly when its warm. I just made a drive to L.A. from San Diego, about a 2 hour drive in the freeway, and it just feels slow after a while, maybe about an hour into it. Stop and Go traffic seems to make it worse. The center console heats up like a mother F*er and I feel like the interior becomes a sauna. And, yes I replaced my precat with a DP already.

HKS?

Get rid of that thing and put your Stocker back on. The stocker really is a good BOV for the twins.

That being said.

I have nothing more to add to this thread.

Well, I had the stock one on, and was actually losing boost, and I seem to hold boost a lot better with this one on. I know, "well go get another stock one that works". That still doesn't answer my question, because the stock one does the same thing... sounds weak on the second turbo. It didn't used to on my first motor from what I can remember, but I didn't have a boost gauge when I had the stock BOV, so I don't know if it was holding boost or not.
