okay, so i hear this rumor. GT series turbo's that are Dual Ball Bearing does not require a bov? compressor surge does not hurt the turbo. is this true or no? im havin bov issues n i dont wanna run one lol. will this result in a garbage turbo or will i be okay. thanks

 

BOV issues?

 

<_< Ball bearing pretty much means there is less resistance for it to spin, thus a faster spool usually results from a ball-bering setup. Given that it still spins like any other non-BB turbo a BOV will do the same in both instances, which is preventing backflow back into the turbo.

 

yes bov issues, im to poor to buy another real bov, ive been through 2 greddy type S bov's, 2 hks ssqv bov's, and an eclipse 1st gen crushed to hell lol. they all break or leak or some capola...


i dont care if it pushes the turbo ------ upside down n under its moms *****. i jus wanna know if it causes damage in anyway. i dont care for compressor surge. i like compressor surge.

 

I personally would run one.

 

get a tial bov then, they are about the best ones you can get.

 

Its true. it doesnt hurt them.

 

couldnt it break the shaft after awhile?

 

over hundreds of years just from stress like everything else.. so in otherwords not in our lifetime ;-)

 

so i can run no bov with no worries? this would be great if its true
