blow off valve venting to atmosphere or a bypass valve???
with my car being as "rice" as it is, a loud BOV almost seems like a natural (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/screwy.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) |

BOV at LRP
Get a BOV... we use them on all our turbos. and have no issues with mixture going off when it opens, then again we dont mass meter the air, we set up the EFI using manifold pressure and throttle position.. Alot of aftermarket BOVs also allow you to plumb them as as bypass valves so you can go either way with the installation.. simpler (ie KISS theorum) is usually the best route.. I guess it all depends on your priorities, all a bypass valve is, is a quiet blow off valve.. six of one half dozen.... etc. |
