    DV is failing, get a new stock DV or upgrade to something else?

    I get a strange screeching noise, like pressurized air, between 8-15psi; but only in that range, I'm thinking it's my DV. Is there any benefit from going with an upgrade like the GFB or another alternative, or should I just get a new stock DV?

    Ever track down that noise or solve the issue?

    Yes, I forgot about this thread or I would have updated it, sorry. The short of it is the sound is coming from the valve cover seal. The long of it is here: http://www.audizine.com/forum/showth...1#post10057941

    Does anyone have a DIY for the valve-cover seal?
