BLOW OFF VALVE!!!

[03f250stroke]

BOVs on an automatic are just stupid..it wont release and give you that uber pimp sound unless you roll into it and then let off the pedal..on a manual car when you shift, releasing throttle it goes off..not needed man, spend money on something more important

also, it is a huge waste of money on a diesel. our turbos only flutter sometimes and its not a big deal. if you have a turbo gasser without a bov, when you let off the gas the turbo will flutter and could cause the shaft to break eventually. Also if you try to get right back on the gas you will feel the car jump and stumble from the turbo wheel spinning in reverse and then getting back on the gas trying to push the wheel the right way.

Its on the correct side, You are confused. if it was on the intake side it wouldnt see boost and do nothing at all.

sorry i said it wrong. it should be on the cold side of the IC piping, not hot. I didnt mean to say it should go on the intake.

all bd is selling is a tial bov..its just a very expensive reversed vacuum cleaner
