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) |

I'd agree that the bypass is the way to go, but keeping a speed-density ECU (like your Link) happy isn't the reason. With the MAP sensor on the far side of the throttle plate, whether the valve vents to the air or the intake is irrelevant. With a MAF system (think L-Jet, or most current OEM setups), it's an issue. I'd stay with the bypass because I think the blow-off valves sound dorky. |
