Sounds like that should destroy your turbo.

Sounds like you should read some more....
Wastegate open -> most of exhaust fumes go via wastegate, some thru turbo. That will *not* destroy turbo (it just spools a little). What would destroy turbo is having it on without charge pipes.

Also, for BOV sounding without pressure.
You don't need lots of pressure - actually almost no pressure.
Why?
Simple... turbo spools up a little (not enuff to make pressure tho), but when BOV opens - due to turbo being spooled - air just flows out thru BOV.

I also get swoosh sound, even if I don't hit boost. Actually almost every time I let of throttle I hear BOV (unless I reaaaaaaaly gently press throttle).

Oh yea... I got Forge VTA BOV.... I luv sound it makes! Nice 'swoosh' sound. Not too loud.. just awsum!

i have a video on my hard drive, but don't have any where to upload it to, it's an old video that was posted on this site a long time ago, so if you search the general forum from a long time ago, i'm sure you can find it, just might take you a while.

Is this Airtonics clip cause I've been looking for it but doesn't come up in the search. I can host it if you want.
