under low low boost it's not a huge deal, but yes you need a BOV.

A BOV for a draw-thru system?

Okay, sorry, wrong term. The valve that is in the exhause feed to the turbo, and is boost referenced, so when you hit a specific boost number, it opens and bypasses the turbo and dumps right into the exhaust. a WASTEGATE !!!!!

In my shop right now, lovin wrenchin and lovin life!!!! I have no wastegate. Was just gonna watch the boost gauge real close until I learned the characteristics of my system. Am I nuts?





Do you like your engine? To you like having pistons and head gaskets in that engine?

The boost will spike fast and hard. Unless you're babying the thing you will never be able to control boost with your foot.
Unless you got this turbo off a diesel, it probably has an internal wastegete. Is there no vacuum pod looking thingie like the zinc plated one on the side of this turbo?

No chance of you controlling boost with your foot.

We have about 11.2:1 A/F at WOT. We have 40 degrees of initial spark that will drop to 20 degrees at 29 psi (although we've never been that high). The engine is a BB, 8.6:1, air to air intercooler nad 93 octane. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EK50vNlHjLo
