Have it installed for over a year now, its great quallity. you can adjust it to taste get more or less blowoff sound play around with it. I routed the BOV to true vacuum by adding a hose going from the intake manifold to the top of the valve cover the stock connection has the diverter valve attached to a solenoid on top of the valve cover, i released the line coming from the diverter valve and attached it to the newly added hose, then i blocked the now open port of the solenoid. The BOV is now vacuum controlled instead of using the ECU to tell it when to open, this will keep the valve shut instead of opening it all the time when letting of the gas and the BOV will be more snappy. I used a Mountune cast intake manifold which has a port on the side to add a bung yourself for a boost gauge or vacuum hose.
Volume adjustments doesn't change the spring pressure, all it does it change how much air is vta and the pshh sound. The adjustment screw changes the spring tension. 2:53 When its entirety closed its just recirculating like a dv. Fyi
@@fiftynation not really, full vta will give you that pshhh sound while recerc will give you no sound or some flutter. I will say recerc can be better because the piston on the bov isn't open to the outside environments. So during the winter or dusty driving having it closed on recerc can be beneficial.
@@fiftynation I hear that since a diverter puts air back in front of the turbo, it helps with spooling it up faster or less drop in pressure during shifts
@@fiftynation From my understanding yes. I am not entirely positive however from what I picked up from looking into it was that a diverter/recirc allows air back into the turbo from the front instead of forcing it back through or venting to atmosphere the air pressure that is recirculated to the front should help keep turbo pressure up. If air is forced back through the turbo he opposite way your turbo will flutter or make the famous "stutututu" noise while a BOV vents to atmosphere. At the end of the day its all preference but if you're going for a turbo flutter it can diminish the life of your turbo

I did end up playing with it and decided keeping it in the middle seemed like the best play.

Thanks for the info. Is there and advantage to having it recirc vs venting?

@@TheGUN2000 Youre saying to no have it vent and it will make the turbo spool faster?

Your windshield cracked there as well? Same spot as mine
There’s a couple videos I found on here with the install I been waiting to put mine on after I get my car back
@@NovaHendrix hope the video helps!
