Thats a one way valve. They usually break when you try to take them off. Mines snapped but the car still works fine. I've since upgraded to a show off valve.

I have a HKS Sequential, but it's got an issue that it starts leaking again every 3 months, so I take it off, stretch the spring, put it together, and she is sweet again for 3 months.

It's annoying, but I now do it as part of the general servicing of my car.

Oneday I will get a new spring.

I can hear a massive hissing, you CANT miss the hissing, as the valve is bassically sitting open, so all boost is just blowing into the atmosephere.

Once the spring is stretched slightly, the car performs 100% better, and the noise goes.
