At What Boost Level Is BOV Upgrade Required?
exactly what the title says. And can you blow out your stock one and cause an idle problem?
sorry, fixed the title.

I don't understand the question. You should never get rid of the BOV on a turbocharged car. Do you mean the stock BOV? Above 18psi i would ditch the stocker(s). I don't think a bad BOV could cause a bad idle, but it will hurt your turbo(s).
