NOT recirculating....
advantages... you hear your blow off valve!
Disadvantages...you pass Cali inspections.

you will not notice any performance gains or losses.

on a map sensor car yes there will be no drive ability issues but next time you see a dsm with a draw through maf pass you shift and spit a flame its because he has vented his bov and his car goes pig rich for a second as he vents all the air his maf just said should be going to the engine.
