Car is at the shop, SR is prepped, KA is pulled, most parts are installed on the motor now just waiting on my heater hoses, new battery and AIV plug to get here and we'll be rolling. Ran into a slight issue: My BOV, greddy RS, is designed to vent to atmosphere which I don't want to do. If I buy the outlet adapter, what size to I buy? There are 3 to choose from it seems. The guy doing my swap has his vented to atmos. but he also has a power FC, which I do not. He thinks it'll be ok because alot of other sr guys around here(didnt even know they existed until recently) have theirs vented and everything works ok, but i want my car to run as perfectly as possible and i sure dont want it bogging during shifts. Help?

You won't get any bog between the shifts.

I've driven many setups with it recirced and atmos. and there is very little difference.

i dunno, i can definitely tell a difference with my bov vented to atmosphere...i can feel a hesitation between shifts and the turbo not spooling quite as quickly...not a huge amount, because my friends cant usually notice it...but its definitely there...

I never felt a difference with my atmospheric BOV.

there isnt really and difference in performance, but if you are on boost just before you stop the car wont idle and it will die making you look like you dont know how to drive or something,

My sr has never stalled on its own from having no bov recirc.

my sr is vented to atmosphere and I have absolutely no problems. I love it. It sounds so much better than the recirculation. Its cool b/c the domestic retards think its nos that they here.
