Which one do you have? The black "Pro-Flow"? That one never fully seals 100% even when brand new but the boost loss is negligible. If you want to test it ... put a D battery in it's place or something similar and clamp it down tight. See if you boost goes up. (Don't keep it in there though as long-term compresser surge would hurt your head unit.)
The Big Red is a nice piece ... but it's not really neccessary until you're making a bit of power. I still have the Pro-Flow but I might be upgrading soon.
