Toecutter Member 182 Member For: 17y 8m 4d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 11/04/09 02:52 AM Share Posted 11/04/09 02:52 AM Hey guys, I'm running an xrt with 317rwkw, rapid cold air under battery, rapid cooler and piping with no BOV.I'm thinking of giving a BOV a trial to see if I can notice any difference in lag etc.I'm having a look at the ones Plazmaman are offering, adjustable.Is anyone here running a similar setup to me with one of these BOV's or similar?I'm after a video or sound clip of what it will sound like with similar mods..Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R-SPEC You are a dead set goose Silver Donating Members 3,968 Member For: 19y 2m 1d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 11/04/09 06:06 AM Share Posted 11/04/09 06:06 AM You'll notice it with gearchanges in a manual. The response when you engage the clutch again is super fast with no BOV and a little laggy with a BOV. You have an auto so I dare say you won't notice much difference unless you're circuit racing and come off an on throttle quickly for sharp corners or something like that. You'll definately get rid of the long-arse flutter running a plumbed back BOV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
