2g bov reversing [merged 1-8] backward

[MC-97-GSX]

I was recently messing around with my 97-gsx, and i flipped the bov around, the end that the dump tube is normally mounted on, i put to the upper I/C piping, and the other end to the dump tube. As a result, the BOV now flutters isntead of the squeek, and it seems to be holding all the boost (14psi) that my turbo is putting out, it sure seems like it too, and it sounds sweet, if only it was a little louder... try it!

Just to clear up the bov's position...On 90's the cruise control is down beside the bov and the bov is in the "upright" position where on a 91-94 model the cruise is behind the intake manifold and the bov is below the intercooler pipe, "upside down". This has been the case on all the 1g's I've seen.

i know hat this thread hasn't been used in a while but i must say i tried this for shiz and giggles and realized that my stock bov has been robbing me of a powerful seat pinned experience.. i think i broke my neck in second gear... makes me wonder
