Forget DVs.. there is a whole better world out there..
My car is running like ****, so I figured why not make it run a little worse.. A friend of mine just got BOVs but isn't ready to drop them in, so.. He let me throw one in after I begged and begged.. =)
I never thought I would have a BOV in my car, but I do.. and I love it.. =) It sounds great.. This is without a doubt the #1 ricer mod of the year.. Its a communication device for a turbocharged car, and it just whistles: RUN ME PUNK.. =) lol
I put a good 50-75 miles on it and no CEL, I will check for some codes tomorrow.. Its definitely the type of mod that puts a smile on your face everytime you hear that whooooshh.. whooooshh.. =) Its also good for a laugh..

It was definitely Jimmmy rigged but its not staying in there for too long so its not a big deal..

I'd love to have that sound, but I don't want to pay the $300 for the hybrid DV/BOV.
...And I don't want the rich conditions that you get with a straight BOV. It's a shame the hybrid is so expensive, but if you really like the sound, that's probably the best route.

Im with you, $300 is insane..
Im just borrowing it from my friend for a little while (I want to see how she runs).. I aways wanted to run a BOV in my car but couldn't justify the money.. Im going to run some vag tests tomorrow to see just how rich I am running.. Theoretically I should be running rich, but I need to test it out to see what she is doing.. If the setup runs well, Im buying one, because Im just sick of my 007P..

Was running a TurboXS H-RFL for a while..
which shames the HKS (IMO)in sound. Had to unplug the MAF to keep the car happy. Ran rich as hell too but sure was a lot of fun. I put it in every now and again to have fun with it...but found the car runs like a champ with the stock 710N valve.

Who makes the hybrid DV/BOV? I think I'd spend 300 bucks on one... I mean,
come on... It's a small price to pay to have all those little ricer boys worship you as you drive past.
But seriously though, who makes 'em?
