sweet...Im gonna stick to my Forge simply for the fact that I dont want all that added attention when its blowing off(I had a Greddy RS that I was gonna throw on there but didnt want it to be real loud...the forge is still pretty loud but its not atmospheric...why dont you try running a BOV with a recirc like the Greddy to get a lil bit more power and consistency at idle and in between shifts...you will still hear it...especially with an intake.

well i looked into those dual BOV that look like the BPV with a BOV attached to it, but they are expensive. I'm gonna stick with the set up i have until i see problems if i ever do. I cant really say what a difference it makes cuz my car is running in some sort of safe mode cuz i havent had the reflash done thanks to the dealers and them not gettin in the device yet. Hopefully i will have it done tomorrow and i can let everyone know if it makes a difference.

the vid has bad sound quality, so believe me it sounds alot better in person. I almost didnt want to post the vids cuz u couldnt hear the bov and it sounded weird. The vid gives the bov an echo affect. hoping to get a better vid soon.

Yea man sure thing. How about Saturday? As far as mods, i have tein s tech springs, trd short shifter, trd exhaust, trd supercharger w/ bov and zpi 9psi pulley. $2000 complete stereo system. Blue LED gauges and dash lights. Blue Cathodes. 35% tint. pedestial spoiler. And i have the 3 pillar pod on the way along with c2 oil pressure gauge, boost w. vac gauge, and air fuel gauge. Should have that installed by saturday afternoon if i get it all by friday.

Just a quick question; your car didn't want to stall after revving the engine at idle like that? Cause that dumps some of the metered air out of the intake system causing you to run pig rich when u close the throttle.

It started to idle low and almost stall at first, but because it was leaking air. We tighened it and now it works fine so far. I just hope after the reflash is done today it will run fine. Let yall know how it goes after thats done.

So as long as a plug the hose for the recirculation I will be good. So BOV's are in and BPV's are out. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask or even call Kenny at ZPI and he'll give you a bit more info in detail.

Because a good BOV will hold boost rock solid.
You can put a BOV on S/C's mustangs do it, and others.

forget everything! the set up is bad, atleast for me. I got my reflash done and the BOV was making my car lag in some gears. When i put back on the bosch 110 sport BPV it ran perfectly. So uness i can fix it with the BOV, i'm sticking with the BPV. Sorry if i got anyones hopes up, on this. Unless it can be improved, stick with the BPV.
