Hey guys !

What do you think about this ? :

Do you think it's efficient ?

It would make your bov louder.

Cause.

1. Its closer to the grill. (this makes a huge difference)

2. Bov's are always louder between the intercooler and the plenum.

EDIT: After looking at the pictures in the fitting guide. It looks retarded.

Yep ! I think so ! Also, I don't find it very aesthetics...
And what about to put the BOV directly on to the boost side of the turbo ?

I was just asking myself...coz i didn't know that we can move the BOV all around the air system like that !
Forge says air would be cooler and we all know it's a good thing.
But is this long hose crossing the engine's bay to join the TIP really efficient ? That is the question !

Don't we matter about the lenght of hoses ?

Not on a return line like that.

A long hose wont do ****.

And to be honest. Air temps because of where a dv isnt going to matter much at all. If you are trying to fine tune a car down to where the BOV is located. Your not really spending time in the right places.

Thks Kai !

I've fallen on this Forgemotorsport's link and it was just to talk about this installation.
But you're right, i don't think it's the way to spend time on it...
