Would BOV to atmosphere on MAF car cause backfire?
I was doing some thinking and that's what I feel would happen. The BOV would release all the pressure into the atmosphere but the MAF read a lot of air going to the intake, so ECU dumps fuel. So you run real rich for during this time which I think would cause backfire. Which would in turn spool the turbo up right between shifts.
Sounds like a mis-firing system.
I'm probably wrong but it just seems like that's what would happen to me.

How?
And wouldn't it be nice though for it to work this way say if you had a big turbo and spooled slowly? Then with this, you get a nice spool before you put it in gear. :P

But, how they work: you press throttle, it keeps revs at ~4000rpm - BUT, it throws in more air and more fuel. Now - you ask how comes revs dont go up? Simple... ignition is retarded - WAY retarded, dont know exactly how much, but numbers are like 20degrees - thus even big part of combustion is in manifold itself. Due to enuff air&gas you get again lost of exhaust gases which spool turbo, even while in neutral.
Yes, this works... and yes - it's not too good for engine, as there is combustion in exhaust manifold, etc, etc... but for 1/4mile and other drags when you need fast start - they're awsum - especially if you have 4x4 drive!
