Default Check out some pics of my custom VOLVO bov!

Hey, i picked up this adjustable BOV at the junkyard for $3.00 the other day. Its actually a damn nice valve, made by Pierburg. I made a new adjustment screw, and cut and welded the stock flange to a short piece of piping. Should be seen in my soon to be assembled turbo setup

makes you realize how severely overpriced your "brand name" bov was.

And how a European piece can work just fine.

It was off of a early 740 with the Garrett turbo.

The later 740's and all 940's had a Mitsubishi turbo with the "integral" style bov.
