Replaced the stock BOV with a monza dual type BOV, because I noticed the stocky was releasing boost while under throttle.I'm running stock piping, however I've moved the blowoff valve out from behind the crossover, and its sitting near the airbox.Anyway... I'm not getting much noise from the BOV at all. I can hear a very faint flutter when I'm giving it a bit, but otherwise not hearing much at all.Is this because I'm only running stock boost? The instructions on the BOV say its suited for 10psi or more... Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The flutter is the air that is supposed to be vented by the turbo going back through the turbo & out the air box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done this once. The difference is you can hear it a lot clearer inside the car when it's sitting under the piping because it's right on the firewall, where as now it's over the other side. It still does the same thing, but you can't hear it from where you sit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QLD Posted 19/07/08 01:20 PM Author Share Posted 19/07/08 01:20 PM Mr Sparkle, I don't have the BOV coming out of the airbox hose!The BOV is still connected to the crossover, but I've just put a longer hose on it, because it wouldn't fit behind the crossover... if that makes sense...

QLD Posted 20/07/08 06:35 AM Author Share Posted 20/07/08 06:35 AM Yeah will eventually get a better one, but for now it'll do as a stock replacement. Was $50 down from $150 so couldn't resist.
