dual bov's?

Is there any benefits having two bov's? I've seen them on Supra's with big turbo's.

one near the tubo and one near the throttle body?

Since our rotarys are really bad with compressor surge, at least mine is. would it be okay to run dual bov's? Is it okay to plug into any vaccuum nipple? I know the stock one is off to the passenger side manifold, would it be better to just run it a splitter on the stock nipple location?

I've heard people run bov's on the hotside and have no compressor surge, should i just run both for max efficency on both sides?

just get a good aftermarket one, or if your cheap, find a midified stock BOV from a 1G eagle talon
the stock one is plastic and crap.

I would run 2 BOV's.... surge is a problem with bigger turbos... So yea. I would..

Coverd befor. Each place has its advantage and disadvantage. Runing two is more so a preferance.

This guy that used to work where I work now had 3 bov's on his supra.He was running a massive T88H though.It was loud as hell it scared the secretaries.Three is probly overkill though even for his setup.I'd say he had a little ricer in him lol.
