HAHHAHAA! Stock BOVs BLOW UP at the boost Im running! I destroyed two of them in a row on my last R/T. They literally explode in half!

My BOV now isnt stock, its a Turbo XS Type H RFL. Its not the BOVs fault that its leaking. Its the fact that the pressure drop across the IC is so great that the pressure on one side of the valve is much higher than the other and the spring isnt designed for accomodate that.

Jeff-

I had planned on it, but theres no way this clutch is going to hold a standing start. Id have to turn the power waaaay down and that wouldnt be fun

The clutch also wont hold full throttle in 4th gear at all, and Ill certainly need 4th as 3rd tops out at 93-94 mph. I think the only reason the clutch holds the lower gears is because my cheap @ss tires spin.

Well actually that might not be a bad idea (in reference to you selling the 413).

Larry, I can't believe John didn't mention this but we have seen turbo cars seriously colapse those cheap cone filters because they are so restrictive.
Joe with the gunmetal DSM had one on his car when he rebuilt the motor, it folded in on itself while he was making a run on the dyno, then sprung back out when he let off. when we noticed it we took the filter off, it was so restrictive that the car would not idle without it, had to retune the ecu to get the car to idle.

buy a good K&N for the next time you go to dyno, I'm pretty sure you might see a difference, especially up top.
