No, but it is recommended. I would if I were you.

the compressor surge at that boost level I'd definately run one

Re: Do I need a BOV
ya just get one so that you dont ---- anything up on the long run

Re: Do I need a BOV
Yes you need one. If you don't have a BOV, then whenever you close the throttle plate (let off the gas), you will get compressor surge, this causes cavitaiton/vibrations, severely shortening the life of your turbo. You would probobly be blowing a turbo up every few thousand miles if you don't have one.

Re: Do I need a BOV
wow usually every one wants the loudest one ever.. this guy doesnt even want one ..lol

Re: Do I need a BOV
no you don't need one. Yes the lifespan of your turbo will be greater. But probably not that much. Everybody tend to think at 10psi it is NEEDED, but look at how many Real Motors pushing 40 some pound of boost don't have a BOV. Mind ya, there are only running for sub-8sec at a time and only shifter 2-3 times.
