ya i know how you do it improperly with a car thats factory turbocharged, but your ecu's are set up to recirculate that air, while the NT ecu's arnt set up to keep that air in the system, so it doesnt hurt it to vent.
 
The air is metered in both turbo and N/T cars.In either, if you release already metered air into the atmosphere, and not into the engine, it will result in the same venting problems.
 
Want to make sure i'm setting this up right since i hear its bad to vent the air that has already been programmed. Is there a way to recirc the air with the xs rfl bov? HEEEEEEEEEEEELP!!!!!

hes a 2gnt, we dont have anything measureing air before the turbo. all we have is an MAP sensor in the manifold, and if the throttle body closes and the air is vented, that air never got to the MAP to be measured.
