For Richard P. and other boost junkies >> Posted by Keith [Email] (#1462) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Keith) on Tue, 10 Apr 2001 16:21:47 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I found another free mod. It doesn't do too much but it's free and takes only minutes to do. The mod is letting the blow off valve (BOV) dump the released boost into the engine bay instead of back into the intake.
What I did was unhook the hose at the BOV and seal the hose off with a 3" peice of broom handle. Then zip tied the hose to keep it from flopping around. Now when you get off the gas or change gears you hear that whooosh from the BOV. The car doesn't feel faster but the spool up might be a tad quicker but it's hard to tell. Basically I figured that it was better not to have the hot air blown back into the intake. Plus, the sound is fun. ;-)
Any other thoughts on this?
