Rx7 masters pls help

One of my stock bov's (stock twin setup w/ dual brown bov/recirculation valves) is blown, sounds like a fog horn after 9psi, where can I get new ones or is it better to block off recurculators and hard pipe in a sequencial bov? I'd love some insight

Are you sure it is blown? How did you check its operation?

I have no idea what this means, but if it is faulty you should replace it. You can pick up a used one in the classifieds for $10.

Also, please use meaningful topic titles.

Please provide a recording of it. It sounds so hilarious in my head.

sorry about the title but i rarely get the help im after with normal titles, anyways i took the directional valve off and regulated 10 psi seeing as how i couldnt make more than 9 and it and 10 blew through the valve, now these valves recirculate the boost into te air filter, is it better to just use a regular bov in the intercooler piping, also are the two valves on each line the same or no, the part numbers are minorly different but its 2 different makes

Non informative titles are rude and annoying. cf. https://www.rx7club.com/faq.php?faq=rules_faq_item, #14.

Again, I have no idea what you are saying. Can you please post in standard English with sentences, paragraphs, question marks, etc.

the valve will not hold more than 10psi. Is it better to get a new one, or get the different ones that bolt to the chrome piping?

Just buy a used one in the classifieds. The two valves are slightly different so use the part number in front to describe the one you are looking for.
