Has anyone "crushed" their BOV?

All the DSM guys are telling me to do it b/c it looks exactly like a 1G DSM BOV. They said it makes it harder to open and increases throttle response or something. I have an RB20 running 14-15lbs w/ SAFC and a FMIC. Does anyone have any experience w/ this?

Also, I recently purchased some RC 550cc injectors. What is the max boost you can run on the stock injectors? Do I even need them w/ the stock turbo? Thanks,~Tony

SCC recently had an article coverin BOVs and crushing them. i believe it's only useful on certain types of BOV, and if yours is already running how you want it to, don't bother. all it does is effectively increase the strength of the spring
