Default uncrushing 1gen dsm bov??

just put a low budget hmt kit on my boys z6 crx (200 haha). its running a 14b at 8psi. everything works great no issue. but the bov is crushed and doesnt open to much. i read that when running low boost on a crushed bov some damage will happen to the turbo over time. does anyone know if it can be "uncrushed" thanks

it's probably fine. Mine's crushed a littler and it opens fine just revving the throttle at idle.

A crushed 1g takes alot of vaccume to open up. Get a uncrushed one and you'll be fine.

think i seen a "DSM BOV Uncrusher" on ebay once, let me see if i can find the link








ok, im just fuckign around, there is no such thing that i know of. just pick up another and sell that one. hopefully you can find one with the same flange so it will be easier to swap.
