Re: BOV
compressor surge aka compression chatter, is when air being compressed hits the throttle plate goes back and the compressor wheel chops the on comping air, making a fluttering noise, this over time ruines the turbo, thats why bov are important.
and no it aint that bad, just put strain on the turbo that dosent have to be there, supposibly ive heard that in extreme cases the air that rushes back could even undo the bolt holding the comprssor wheel in, i dont know if this is true tho.
