Default Install question

I am pieceing together my own kit and was comparing it to the greddy 15g kit to make sure i got all my parts and i noticed that the 15g kit doesnt come with an intercooler or a blow off valve. I was wonderin if i would be ablt to run my setup without those 2, the engine i got is a d15 and its only an ihi turbo off a probe/626. Would this be ok to run untill i got my BOV? and on that note does anyone got a real cheap very basic BOV for sale i'm talkin like a real cheap bosch one even ?

Yes you can run it without those. They are just extra steps to prevent damage. If you are running 10+psi I would say no though.

Why would he blow his engine? Not everybody runs an intercooler. Some people run as much as 10 psi with no intercooler. The bov only protects the turbo, not the engine.

Unless the constant compressor surge causes the impeller to break off and get blown into the engine.....lol
