There isn't blowoff valve the first in my car. Look over the pics (hit my webpage, has a link to the install) as I have detailed pics of all my charge piping (it's easy to spot as it's all primer gray for now). The sound you're hearing are the wastegates. The turbos are straight off a couple of JY Chryslers on into my car! (though one does need some seals/bearings)

Stock as far as the rods, crank but I'm using some forged pistons (stock replacement TRW's). I got some high dollar AFR CNC Aluminum heads, mild cam, and a seriously reworked Cobra upper and lower.
If your buds gas mileage is as bad as you say, he needs some tuning done. Something is amiss.


man, i know i hear a bov,
i'm not shittin ya, there isn't blow off the first on the car. If you listen as I come to a stop to let the car pass. You can actually hear the wastegates opening/closing seperately. When I'm shifting, it's a bit harder to tell them apart. but when I come to a slow, the one on the driver side (closest to the intake) closes first every time.

Yeah AbaZ, I told Terry (the guy cutting the lawn) that I put him on the net. He replied (with his thick Texas Accent) Da net?! Is that anything like the WEB??

His is carbed, that's probably it. ::) He does strip cars for a living, never tells me exactly what he did, smart street racer... but I know it's got alot. He runs mid/low tens w/ d.s. 100 shots.
bov: you would know, it is your car.

I don't want to start an argument but out of all the vehicles I've had, my del sol is the most economical. Plus I have driven lots of vehicles. The numbers released aren't always correct.

This is list in order of owning them.

1995 Chrysler Cirrus V6 (not bad economy)
1998 Chev 1500 W/T (shitty all around with gay governer)
1999 Honda Prelude SE (shity with the foot down)
1995 Honda Civic Del Sol VTEC (Best, can go almost 2 weeks on a fill)
