What's the max boost that the stock BOV can hold? I vaguely remember seeing it somewhere that it was 19 PSI. Is that correct?

Also, does anyone have a Forge 100% recirc? If so, how much louder is it than stock, since a 100% recirc shouldn't be too loud right?

 

There was a thread on nasioc about modding the stock bpv to hold more pressure if you want to save some $. Any recirculating bov should sound the same as the stock bpv.

 

I read somewhere that the stock BOV could safely handle 18lbs. I'm sure the more knowledgeable ones will chime in OR a quick search should do it for you.

 

maybe i used the wrong keywords because i searched and really didn't find much

 

I run 18 pounds and the stock bov runs well... i heard it can run up to 19 pounds well.....

 

Now what about the JDM OEM BOV(recirc)?

 

On what turbo are the references to PSI based on?

for my setup it would be on a VF-35 w/ stock intercooler and the ECUTek reflash if that matters

 

You wont exceed the stock BOV with that setup.

alright, cool. Since I read somewhere that 19 PSI was the max, so I was worried I may be leaking some.
