[tfuhst]

anyone have their BOV yet?

[ENGINE 58]

not me

[ENGINE 58]

Has the bovs even been picked up yet? Fedex still shows nothing is on the way. I've tried calling but get the answering machine. I've sent a pm and haven't got a response back . Can anybody clue me in on what's up. This is the longest I have ever had to wait for a part. I hope it's worth it. I would like to buy more stuff they have like the dp and the o2 sim . But the waiting dude come on already.

hey adam i got nothing. ive sent pms but nobody has gottin back to me.

sooo.... with this kit i can run three BOVs??? my Helix13 one (which replaces the noise maker), the one on the turbo itself (which some use that forge piece on...) and the RR one??? i'm not gonna lie that doesn't make any real sense to me. especially if you're running the stock noise maker.

the piece on the turbo would take care of most if not all boost cuz it's electrically controlled... the stock noise maker i don't trust enough cuz it's not vacuum activated... so RR's design seems perfect!... except for that piece for the stock noise maker... you don't need to keep that IMHO. the vacuum activated BOV will take care of high boost levels and the one on the turbo can technically take care of all boost... if i didn't know any better i'd say just those two are the perfect system, why leave one that could potentially fail? i doubt that the noise maker would do well under modified heavy boost (18+ PSI) especially under a sustained system... only way around that is maybe grab the JCW noisemaker since JCW makes more boost... but the noise maker is exactly that... a noise maker...

i'd just like to know what the point of that is... i don't see how having an extra hose in the system would be more efficient than a completely closed system with an in line BOV (one vacuum on the cold side, one electronically on the hot side)... add an extra hose i don't see how that's any more efficient than just replacing the noise maker with a BOV?

i'm not trying to throw a wrench into the works... i just want to know the performance gain (if any) of having three BOVs in a system that, on most cars, have only one. Subarus and Mistubishis run a crap load of boost and all they have is one BOV.... we definitely run less boost and we do fine with the electronic BOV, some take out the one on the turbo with a tune and leave it all to the vacuum activated one to do the work (vacuum being an aftermarket one of course). i just find it hard to see the benefit of three. in stock setup, i guess ones pressure, ones vacuum, one electronic sorta make sense as long as you don't tune... in basic bolt-on untuned setup (the one i have at this point at least...) two vacuum BOVs seems redundant... and since the only aftermarket piece for the BOV on the turbo is just a spacer from forge... i donno, it just seems like there are sooo many paths to the same end... better boost response and recovery between shifts... and of course saving the turbo from compressor surge... i'm ranting now... basically it comes down to this question: why run three when you can replace the two original ones for one more efficient one?

[uggbird]

did everyone get stage 1 kits? anybody who ordered stage 2 get a refund
for the difference?

[Mini Bo Bini]
