bradvr6 1 Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 Hi,I'm currently bulding up the bits I need for my turbo conversion. Have most of the bits now but I'm stuck as to, A. Do I need to run a BOV (which I assume I do)?B. Does it need to be a re-circulating BOV?C. What make/size is best for my setup?I'm going to be running the stage 1 C2 software with 30#injectors and standard MAF.Cheers,Brad. Link to post Share on other sites
Antihero1981 8 Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 yeah you will need a BOV....not to sure about if it needs to be recirc but on my supercharged vr i use a recirc as i find it runs better and doesnt give away i am charged...i got a BOV if your interested....a forge one.....

russj249 2 Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 you should use a re circ because your using a maf sensor. venting to atmosphere will make it run super rich off throttle. maybe get flames but do more damage than its worth.as for size, bigger is better. the quicker you can disperse the boost air, the less chance of trying to spin turbo backwards. i have a forge supersize that's 38mm instead of the conventional 25mm.

jims13 6 Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 25mm work fine Link to post Share on other sites
bradvr6 1 Posted September 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 Cheers fellas, that's sorted that one out! I think as I'll be looking to expand the setup in the future, I'm going to go big. What are the Tial and Turbosmart BOVs like? Link to post Share on other sites
FishWick 21 Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 The Forge Motorsport 007P is a popular choice. Tried and tested. Reliable and well made. Link to post Share on other sites
bradvr6 1 Posted September 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 Just out of interest, where would you recirculate to? Before the MAF sensor? Drewsus 1 Link to post Share on other sites
russj249 2 Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 Between the maf and turbo intake. Link to post Share on other sites
