How would you install a BOV on a twin turbo setup?

do you have to replace both stock BOV or just one?


this is probably a silly question to most of you but im still learning so gimme a break and thanks in advance.

Oh yea random ?, where is the nipple to hook up a boost gauge at.

You only need to install it on the primary charge relief valve. If you cant tell which is which, unhook both from the air box and rev the engine a few times. The primary charge relief will release.

well could someone who has one tell me if its the valve closet to the air box or farther back?


does the primary blow off at 4,500 when the secondary kicks in?



and one more

do the BOV that are made for the FD usually go in pretty easily?

it is the one closest to the airbox, tht is the one you change...you dont really need to change it as the stock BOV does its job.

so disconnect the rubber hose going from the crv to the airbox, plug the nipple by the airbox and run the crv hose into the atmosphere..

Could disconnecting the line from the CRV , to the airbox mess anything up?


( I searched the threads on the link you posted and it doesn't really answer that question )


if nothing can be damaged i might go try it for ***** and giggles and the woosh sound of course

You dont need to buy a aftermarket BOV to make the 'whoosh' sound. Just get a nice intake setup and have both BOVs open to the air with little filters on the ends and you'll hear your 'kool' whooosh sound..
