Forge DV's as BOVs
Has anyone tried using their Forge DV's as BOVs?
So instead of using the hoses to recirc just let the DV's vent to the atmosphere. Throw on some small breather filters in place of the hoses to prevent anything from getting into the DVs (similar idea as the AWE DV/BOVs)? I'm wondering what kind of BOV noise I can expect. ![]() |

Shiv is using the Forge DV's as Blow off valves for the Single Turbo cars.

Sounds like "A choooo". If you really want to know just unplug it and rev it real quick. Wont kill it trying once. (assuming you dont live in a sand storm haha).

Get awe blow off valves, they can be used as dv or blow off valves and have filters on them to keep them from sucking in debris. Helix sells them....I have them, they are sick, the perfect amount of woosh sound
