recirculating, you don't loose as many rpms in the turbo that way and it's quicker to get back up to full boost. Also, it's not as loud which personally I think is tacky and really starting to get played out.

ease up man. the only word he misspelled was "the" and his finger probably slipped on the spacebar in the other spots.
i'll do the moderating around here, not you.

Yes they both make noises, however, I seriously don't like the thought of forcing air back into the compressor side of the turbo, just isn't doing to for me. I mean sure you'll have a little faster of a spool up, but if you are that worried throw on a small shot and you'll be happy!

I would agree. I would prefer the open air BOV and I do not think that the sound is "played out". That is how I can tell who will be a good race, and who will not. |
