re route it back to the turbo inlet???? instead of venting it to the atmosphere??


and yes it sounded a whole lot louder with the alarm horn at only 6psi... so im guessing at 8 it should be even louder

Or just rig it to your horn, so everytime it psssh's your horn will honk. Can't get any louder than that. :P

that 2g BOV is WORTHLESS. it's a plastic piece of ---- and it leaks boost. go out and buy a BOV worth something...because i've seen those things leak AT IDLE on more than a couple 2g DSM's....

well, considering there's full vaccuum sent to it at idle, it seems quite normal that it would be slightly open. so tell me, just how much boost are you planning on running at idle? if you know how to set them up, they can be good to over 20psi with no leaks.. i'll have to find the post on the other board about it...
