2g BOV
 
If I could get a 2g blow off valve for free, do you think it's worth using? I hear they're good for about 13psi. I would only be looking for 10psi, so I am thinking it will be good enough. Just wondering if anyway has any experience with these.

its plastic and crappy, but free is always good. You cant just put a flange on your ic pipe, you have to use a coupler to mount this one

It doesn't matter if it leaks at idle, right? It's just letting in some small amount if unfiltered air?

I guess if it's free it doesn't matter if it breaks/doesn't work

The word in the DSM world is that they start to leak at like 12psi or something in teh double digits. Many stock BOV's are open a little at idle. If it is free go for it. If you have to pay anything though, go for a 1g.

I wouldn't use it but if its free you'd be a fool not to at least grab it. It's not like its gonna take up a lot of garage space or anything.
