Default an idea about turbos and sc's

i was recently discussing the differences between turbos and sc's with someone, and i pointed out how the JRSC puts less wear on a motor while cruising since it has the bypass valve.

my question is, why dont you turbo guys hook up your bov so that it stays open for cruising and then closes instantly when the throttle increases? wouldnt this make for less wear and tear on your motor while cruising?

btw i want to see some of the profits when you start selling my idea

You are not doing any damage when cruising in turbo car. You car is in vacuum or close to 0psi. You only start making boost when there is load and accelration.

Then by that time when you left of the gas the bov will open therby alleviating compressor surge.

In other words your theory is way off...

ok... the BOV opens when you let off the gas... so does it close when you put gas back to it? in other words... when exactly does it close?

Yes. The BOV is controlled by a vacuum line that goes to your intake manifold. When the BOV senses vacuum, it opens the BOV, the second that you open the throttle plate again, that vacuum goes away and the BOV closes agian.
