Just a question about BOV's max boost ratings. Does the max number have to do more with flow or the fact that the BOV opens up at a certain pressure? My weird logic tells me that if the vacume source going to the BOV has pressure on it, then how can the pressure in the charge pipe push the BOV open? Wouldn't the pressure on both side of the piston be the same?
