No BOV

My car never hit the bumpstops at 220whp but it did alot with 380whp.


so maybe.


yeah, blowoff valve is a little better transient on a MAP car, don't know how much it matters on a MAF car though.

Maybe on bigger turbos.

I recirc my BOV to my heater...

I also run a mixture of baby oil and vasoline instead of convention motor oil...I'm unsure of my oil pressure.

3076R with a BOV has the same response or better as a T25 without.

thats my experience with it.

30R without a ported cover surges like fuck part throttle anyway, so I get my fill of compressor surge without having to deal with no blow off valve lag.

best of both worlds, on throttle surge sounds cooler anyway.

Ill tell you one thing from my personal experience:

I run a KA-T setup, that is a t3/t4 hybrid turbocharger on an IAP manifold, tial 44 mm wastegate, fmic, 2" ic piping, 2.5" downpipe, 3" downpipe, 3" testpipe, 3" exhaust, etc. basically the IAP turbo kit on my otherwise stock KA24DE motor with 114K on it. I initially had a Greddy RS that was left venting to the atmosphere but every time I came to a sudden stop or let my foot off the throttle the car wanted to die. As soon as I recirculated the BOV car ran fine, keep in mind im still running a MAF setup and the air gets recirculated back into the intake after the MAF before the turbo.

So yes in a normal OEM style turbo setup with a MAF on a stock ECU for driveability purposes you want to run a BOV, however as argued before hand whether or not a BOV is needed is all based on the setup, the tune, as well as how the car gets treated and what turbine is being used. ON a race only car it might not affect much, but on a daily driven car it will more then likely help driveability.

What happened when you didn't run a bov?

Sounds like a turkey driving the Jetson's flying car.

AWESOME.

I love it!!

LMAO, no you don't

My friend gained 2 whp on the dyno removing the air filter off his B16 Civic and larger turbos can be restricted by their filters.

My post pertained to SCREEN versus FILTER

[Koopa Troopa]

There's no difference. You do know that most MAFS come with screens on them from the factory right?

i'm drinking starbucks, it was very delicious and has entertained my palette, like this thread, has entertained my sense of humor.

7" velocity stack + no bov sounds like this: YouTube - s2000 spins out at streets of willow 11-29-08

[Z33dori]

what turbo?

[Red Square]

hks gt-ss...... baby turbos ftw =)

but bras are about keeping more important things up there's the difference
