BOV on VW Turbo Diesel???
Can it be done without hurting anything?

Re: BOV on VW Turbo Diesel???
Does the Engine have a throttle body? Most diesels don't have a throttle body and instead work by throttling the amount of fuel being burned. If it doesn't have a throttle body theres no point in putting a BOV on one because it will never open.

An exhaust brake would be cooler... marginally.

actually, one that was driven from teh alternator vac pump and controlled by a tps switch on the gas pedal with a solenoid could be useful to keep the turbo semi spooled on a shift... i think, but maybe not.

Re: BOV on VW Turbo Diesel???
is this some modern POS ecu controlled diesel, or a reliable injector pumped diesel (which was the majority, and should stay that way for diesels intended purpose of pulling heavy ---- around, particularly partly under water.) if the latter, it doesnt have one, if the former, the man has a point, and it would be best to leave it alone.
