icer Banned 2,335 Member For: 15y 3m 27d Gender: Male Location: Aspendale, Vic. Posted 15/06/10 06:30 AM Share Posted 15/06/10 06:30 AM Is it safe to run big power with no bov at all? I put a screw in the t-piece and will prob replace with a y-piece. I have replaced the plazmaman pipe with another plazmaman pipe with no hole for the BOV (just a straight pipe) after the plenum. So no BOV at all currently.Makes a huge long flutter sound even after only been able to rev it to 3k rpm and maybe pushing 1psi though it. Dont care about sound or wank factor etc. Just wanting to know if the turbo will be safe as normal. Or shall I put the pipe with the bov back on?Just after a couple of different opinions.

I see posts where people claim they have never heard of issues with people running no bov, ive heard peple saying they know people who have a stuffed turbo due to no bov, I have people saying depends how much boost your running....If I recall correctly, danny said I can just weld up the hole (so virtually same setup I have now) and its all good.Geez...next time ill sign up with a new account and ask there.
