alright i feel really stupid asking this but do you need a turbo in order to have a BOV on your car? im just lookin to do a lil somethin diff with my 07 si for now...i plan on getting a turbo but i just want mine to sound a lil diff. thanks

 

you could put a BOV on your car without the turbo... but it wont do anything and would be generally pointless so I dont know why you would. the bov is to relieve pre throttle body pressure in f/i applications, you wont have any positive pressure when n/a.

just wait till you do your homework here reading up on more information and eventually get a turbo kit.

oh and yes you will probably get flamed for this thread quite heavily.

bov are for turbo applications. Don't waste money on one now. Save the money for your turbo kit, then add one and then you won't get flamed

 

get one. it will prevent air filter damage when the throttle snaps closed. you'll never have to change your air filter again.

 

You can get fake electronic ones that give you the whistle when you shift. You'd be the coolest kid in town!!

 

first mod i would do to my 07 civic si would be to check the muffler bearings. they suck on the new civics..... but yeah a bov on a non turbo car would be pretty cool to see. i would do it for sure. i never thought to do it! thumbs up!!!
