Default 2017 Civic Si BOV

I recently read that if I add an aftermarket BOV like the moomba for example that it will cause my car to run rich between shifts due to the fact that the MAF sensor is located before the turbo. Anyone using this BOV and are you having that issue? Looking to start mods soon but don’t wanna screw with a brand new cars sensors since all cars are so picky these days.

I'll be corrected if I'm wrong, and I may be since it's been a long time since I've had a car I've wanted to mod and tune, but you'll need to get a ktuner or a flashpro and tune to the exact parts you have on your car. So if you install a BOV you'll need to re-tune to tell the ecu to not expect all of that recirculated when the throttle blade is closed. The cheapest and easiest way to do this is acquire every part you want to throw on there at one time and then tune so you're not tuning constantly. Hope this helps.
