Is that right? Can't see anywhere else I can put. I'm not really a big fan of it because the fuel pressure regulator runs on the same Y piece. I know I can run the line for the boost gauge anywhere on the piping near the throttle body. I'm just asking if it's good where it is now. Because I dont want to buy a new blow off valve and will have to re run vacuum lines depending on answer for next question.... As the car sits now the standard Bosch BOV leaks air at idle because there's nothing on the outlet side helping it close under vacuum because it doesn't have the crossover intake anymore. Instead of buying a new standard unit or a aftermarket one because I believe the one I have now is faulty, I would like to know if people that have had their car tuned if their tuners have removed the standard blow off valve all together. Car is auto, FG. Standard turbo, not planning on going over 300rwkw and it's a daily so will rarely see WOT and full boost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the way to go. Just remove it. There's no worries doing so. It shouldn't have trouble staying closed as it only opens when it has a vacuum source. Just make sure it either re-circulates the air to the intake or has a mini filter on it, if you want to keep it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either the spring is snagged or its designed to have a bit of vacuum from the over the engine intake like it would if it was standard to stay fully closed. Looks and feels like a sensitive blow off valve. I'll just remove it before it gets tuna'd Edited 07/01/19 09:50 AM by I love kittens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More stuffing around than I thought it would be but whatever. Had to retune it as it was hitting boost cut and leaning out a tad but all good now though. The iat's are much better but it is a fair bit colder tonight with 22c ambient. #choochoo Here's a half assed pic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
