Thanks for the answers, My e-mail is Nzaizar@aol.com for the vid!
my 4.57's make noise and I enjoy it! I didn't buy this car as a cruiser and I think the BOV would make a nice addition to the engine harmony!
Aus, that sounds cool but is there any downside to eliminating those hoses?

That plumbing is simply there to meet some bizarre emission requirements that say that if air enters the system it should not be released unfiltered. The result is that, at anything less than WOT, air is continually pressurised and released back into the intake where it is either sucked into the compressor again or escapes back out through the filter.

I've had mine disconnected and just releasing into the engine bay for months without an issue.

On the Vortech, the BOV sits above a hole in the lower splash shield. It is possible for dirt to get inside the valve's opening. It also catches a lot of dirt through the radiator's cooling fans.

I love my SC S2000!


Why?


NO LAG!


My Supra with it's single T78 has too much lag IMO. I love my snappy throttle response.
