I have been running an open bov since I got my safc but im going to recirculate it for better drivablility. My question is what do i set the dec. air settings at? do i just set it to 0?

im running a 1st gen dsm bov and the spring in it is not strong enough to keep it closed when the vac is anything under -15. You can crush the bov to make the spring stonger but then you start getting compressor surge. my a/f's are all over the place when im not on the throttle or just barely on it.

im pretty sure you would set the air decel to 0 seeing as no air would be vented into the atmosphere anymore. ya you shouldnt have a problem with that.
