I dont mean to sound like an idiot. But since it was brought up what exactly is the difference between a wastegate and a bov?? Im assuming that a wastage is after turbo or on the exhaust side and the bov is on the intake side usually after the intercooler right? Well if this is the case what exactly is a Pop off valve??

a pop off vavle is a saftey device used on some stock cars,
it is designed to release at a certain boost level.
so if the car is designed to run a 7psi, the pop off will usually go at 10psi.
it is not controlled by vacuum like a BOV it will just release when a cetain pressure is reached.

Im susprised then that more 7s dont have a pov.. It seems with all of the engines that are blowing b/c of boost spikes this would be the best way to go...
