I read on the internet that turbo flutter (which I easily confuse with compressor surge) causes significant damage to the turbo, even though I can't find a single test conducted on the matter. I can't even give a basic rudimentary estimate of how much a turbo's life will be decreased by not having a BOV. I ignore anyone who claims to have run hundreds of thousands of kms without a BOV on over 10psi of boost on OEM turbos.
