can you go about granny shifting, letting the rpms drop to 2000rpm before re-engaging and still keep full boost? if so that is awsome!

those cars are not vented because of the maf sensor, I"m not gona explain it to you.

BMCrace: there is absolutely nothing wrong with that setup, why infact, its one of the most innovative setups I've seen recently, its quite fantastic actually. The recirculated BOV, the 3 inch downpipe with stock cross member, the polished piping, the intake manifold. Congradulations on doing something that everyones done, but doing it differently. I bet hes a happy customer!
Thanks man! Im glad somebody likes it!
for people like me, Ivan, and anybody else out there wanting to go about doing a sleepr recirculating the bov is a must. As soon as his brand new factory front bumper comes in we will be flat blacking his intercooler for the sleep approach. Also we will tossing a new factory exhaust on there complete with 3" e cutout for when he wants to get nasty!

what ever I wont argue any more. Like I said above before the vent back it would be at 5psi after he shifted and would have to build up again, after the vent back it stays at 12 psi the whole time.

He will be giving it a good cleaning in a month or two when he puts the new engine in.
He hasnt cleaned it for a while (1 year actually) but I told him he is gonna have to start cleaning it weekly it monthly if he wants me to do the tuning and his setup. It actually looks alot better now since he did clean it saturday morning and put on a new valve cover.
