a98pmalcolm Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 I think the standard one is a recirculating BOV so no unused boost should coming out of it I maybe wrong as i have never had one of these on my supra sinse i owned it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GINNO78 Posted July 10, 2011 Author Share Posted July 10, 2011 the impression I have got is if you can blow through the standard bov with your mouth its knackered....should only open with a firm push of the thumb/finger....can someone confirm this?

Lude Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 why do you think its faulty? are you losing boost or something? i removed mine comepletly, for months. (now got a blitz one) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistermann Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 (now got a blitz one) +1 You shouldnt be able to blow through the stock one - I've heard of a few poeple with this problem recently and have sold my old stock BOV - when i tested it before selling it, it took a fair bit of effort to move it with my finger. Mine was in mint condition too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamuraiFlash Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 What kind of noise should a stock BOV make if anything at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
