After market BOV

ethan12510 · 09-06-2007, 01:02 AM

well a while ago i put on a apexi bov but i left the stock Pressure relief Valve in but took one hose off and put it on the new BOV. IS it okay to leave the Stock one in? or should i put a tube in there and eliminate the stock one? thanks in advance for any help thanks!

As long as it's not leaking I don't see any reason why you would have problems with it. I'd be inclined to remove it though... it's just one more thing that could go out.

my philosophy is if your not using it then take it out. i mean people make fun of me all the time for this but hey it works, you might think taking it out dont make a difference but when you find tons of things that you dont need and weigh 30 pounds each it make a great increase in your start off. i gutted everything out of my car im gonna put in racing seats and harnesses, because the driver seat alone weighs like 120 pounds i dont really know how much but every pound counts when you race it.

120lbs? that the biggest over exageration i ever heard, its more like 60-70, maybe a little more, either way its a back breaker, but its so comfortable

I left mine in with no negative effects. I know if you take it out and put the new BOV on the car might stall.

100 lbs is equal to about 1/10 of a second.
