i dont find this normal. ive had the hks ssqv on my supra for almost 12 years now, and never has it been stuck in the closed position. even after extended periods between startups.

Mine had some dirt in it that mixed with the grease that caused it to get stuck. This is mainly due to where the bpv is located. The open part of the bpv was facing directly toward the front of incoming air, but I have since turned it to the side to decrease the amount of dirt that enters the bpv. I'll find out in a few months if that helped.
