BOV to be installed

Gran Coopay · 11-25-2007, 12:01 PM

A local tuning shop here has contacted me and would like to put a BOV on my car. They are testing it, and want to make a marketing video/audio or something. They'll let me keep it after they're done. I am not too familiar with the pro's and con's of a BOV. Other than sound, do BOV provide any other performance?

NO, they dont provide any performance in our cars. Its mostly a sound aesthetic and a pretty piece in the engine bay when you open the hood.

IF the boost gets turned up

unless that your only mod you should see no problems

What shop? I'm in Chandler too and would be willing to pay for a quality BOV if they have one available.
