Default I need a recommendation for a BOV

The bov is on a bike which wont be making too much boost and is a small engine to begin with. Whats a good BOV for low boost? i cant see myself running any more then about 8psi. If for some reason you need to know how many lbs or air or anything else of that nature let me know.

Get a DSM BOV for $50, cheap and effective.

What bike are you turbocharging. I'm looking at putting on a turbo kit on my 2004 gsxr600. The kit I'm looking at is from turbobikeresearch.com and they use a Forge motorsports BOV which sounds nice. Check the video out on the website. Good luck.

I looked at the page and saw the kits they have. kits seem to be pretty good but have nothing to remap the ignition timing. what do you guys think about that? also I call the number and apparently they are owned by "Slow Boy Racing" so i give them for that alone.

Yeah, they are on the same level as the Blitz DD BOV....I like them and I was looking into getting one because they are cheaper than blitz and no one has them....
