You probably will have a better chance. There probably shouldn't be a shortage of turbos around that time. It's really beyond anyone's control as to how many turbos the manufacturer can produce and deliver. But I don't know if that's too far out for zpi to know. But you should check with them anyway.

ZPI, I've been reading a lot about turbo tC's having issues with stalling/idling with atmospheric bov's, just wondering whether the tial bov in the kit is atmoshpheric or recirculated? And I should be able to change out to a different bov if I wanted to right? Or is the flange where the bov attaches specifically made to just cater to the tial bov? Thanks if anyone can answer my questions.

the tial bov is strictly atmospheric. it has multiple ventilation points. whereas other brands have a single or dual exit points or "horns". you can swap it for a different bov, but a different flange will be required and will need to welded in place of the tial flange.

So all I would have to do to switch to a different one would be to buy a new one, buy the flange, and get the old one taken off and the new flange welded on, and I'd be good?
) a new flange should be included when you purchase a new bov, but check just in case if it is not.

I'm liking this one, would the above specs be okay?

Is this normally an atmospheric bov and if so, what needs to be done to have it recirculated?I know this is the same kind of bov on the turbonetics kit and they're saying it's recirculated. Any help would be appreciated.
