Its wise to use a BOV no matter what the boost your running, although I suppose if you are running 5psi or less (rare) you "could" live without it for a while. Just remember if you don't use one, when you let off the throttle where does all that pressuized air in the intake piping go? Back out the compressor if there is no BOV, and something spinning at thousands of rpms one way then having to stop and sping the other way makes for a very UNHAPPY turbo. This is called compressor surge, and it will kill your turbo pretty quick.

 

Sorry w post had to be edited.I know why you need one.My question is why you would need two.Sorry.But thanks for trying to help.

 

You would need two if you are running a crazy amount of boost.

Wouldn't it be quieter to run 2 BOVs as well? I'm assuming that at low pressure the noise is far less obtrusive... Just for more of a sleeper...

 

i was thinking about doing it when i get a new BOV (if ever) cause i hate mine. blitz ss

 

whats wrong with you blitz ss and what don't you like it?
