i agree with this about the Idle air control valve. But not all BOV's idle in the closed position. Off brand junk is notorious for this. Its a big thought when deciding what BOV to put in your car. HKS has a second diaphragm so you cant build enough vacuum to pull it open at idle. Thats also why HKS needs to run those little air filters.
