keep in mind with a maf style set up if you dump the extra presure to atmoshere you will load up on fuel between gears .. gettin a lil backfire between gears .. the computer is metering air (then adding fuel to match the amount of air ) so when you bleed that air off to the atmosphere you get a rich condition when the valve is open .. i say stay recurcutalted .. i have built quite a few turbo cars and thats my personal opinion .. i think the only reason most pep like them is because you can make the (cool ) noise really loud when you vent to atmosphere ..

I'm using a Bitz bov not recirculated. Never had a problem.

im not sayin it will cause a problem just stating the fact that with a non-recuculating bov you will load with fuel between gears .. i have built and tuned quite a few turbo cars and there is a deff diff between gears recurculating also helps you build boost faster after you shift .. not saying its wrong to do it that way just sayin its better all around to recurculate ..

No you misunderstood me. I'm not disagreeing with you. You're absolutely correct. I'm just stating to the op that I'm not having any drivability issues with my set up.
