Is there a way to run Tial bov closed loop???

I'm wondering if anyone knows a way to run a Tial bov closed loop so that it vents back into the intake???

Thanks,
STEPHEN

You'd have to build some kind of hat for it.. kind of like for a blow-through carb setup. I would think it'd be easier to pick up another bypass valve.

Well, I've already got the hole cut and flang wended to the IC pipe and dont really want to make a new pipe.

I was just wondering if there were any kits out for it. You'd think as many forced industion mas air flow cars as there is on the market tial (or someone) would make a recirculation kit for it.

by looking at the shape of that BOV i dont see that happening... have you thought about running a Greddy Type-R BOV back into the intake? the Type-R has a nice angled dischare that im sure some tubing and welding could get you there... I also think Turbo XS has a plumb back unit too

good luck

A BOV that vents back to the intake system is called a "bypass valve". About 2 years ago, TiAl was working on a bypass valve conversion accessory for their BOV. You may want to ask them if they are selling it now.

BTW, it is fine to vent the BOV to the atmosphere if you are using a speed-density or alpha-n EMS.
