Random Thought: BOV + Air intake
 
Hello guys. I've been thinking. Was wondering if you guys think the richness of a 100 % atmosphere venting BOV will cover for the leaness a shortram intake would even eachother out to make more power? Or does the intake just take in too much air ?

no. the bov only makes the car run rich when it's venting (throttle body closing while shifting, etc...) the intake can make your car run lean because of a different diameter in the MAF housing which will cause it to measure less air than is actually there. the two will not offset eachother.

the two combined are actually worse than each on its own. bad idea.
