Im looking at BOV for my turbo ek and Tial Q looks really good. What do people have?
 
What power you pushing? What spring do you have in your BOV Jamie? Also where did you connect the vacuum hose?
 
Tial Q here.
Bov springs are matched to intake vacuum not boost pressure or power. The idea is that as you come off the throttle the vacuum pulls at the spring and the boost pressure pushes it open.
Under boost the same pressure is applied to both sides of the BOV so its held shut by the spring.
 
What spring you got jesse? Where would the vacuum hose connect?
 
Iirc mines the 2nd from strongest spring they do. The valve is still held open alittle on idle aswell but thats not really a big deal on our cars.
I connect mine to what was the breather port on the intake manifold.
 
Mine came with the goautoworks kit.
Im sure they sell them seperately
 
So on idle do i look at my boost gauge to get the vacuum pressure? I know its a dumb question lol

How do i measure my vacuum at idle?
 
Thats correct. Its not so big a deal on our engines as we dont have maf sensors.
 
Honestly mine doesnt make a huge amount of noise. Check my build thread for the 1/4mile run, probably cant even hear it
 
Tbh ive been contemplating blocking it off and getting some turbo-turkey noises going on. Just for the fun of it for a while lol
 
I've noticed mine with the weaker spring makes a good woosh
