Sorry for yelling but this surge is air trying to push your turbo back the other way, not good for longevity, or so I believe...Simon from nizpro told me its ok so he offers the stage 2 kit without a BOV unless requested.. and hasn't had/heard of a failure yet... I assume for journal turbos this would be bad.. but not roller.. they can take more of a beating.. but I, like u , could be wrongYour car will have worse response between shiftsThat is true.. mines slower between gears.. but the noise makes up for it.. I can whoop most ppl (who don't have T's) on the road.. so doesn't bother me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest newl Guests Posted 17/08/07 06:46 AM Share Posted 17/08/07 06:46 AM It's been covered before by Simon of Nizpro as to whether or not blow of valves are needed or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
