Default Running Dual BOV's questions...

No matter what I do my blitz bov isn't letting out enough air to prevent surge, comes and goes basically so I'm in the process of trying to figure out where the best place to place two BOV's on the Greddy kit, and considering the passenger side pre-wheel well area is for my oil and p/s cooler, where else could be a good place to mount the BOV's.

Is closer to the compressor's better vs. right before the maf? Or pre-i/c or after i/c better? And since I already have a bov on the driver side, should I remove that or keep all three? And does anyone know if a blitz dd flange have an adapter for the txs type h? Any input appreciated!

I'm thinking one on the pipe comming right next to the oil pan on the driver side and on right here on the very top of this pipe for the passenger side turbo....

You should put them on the two pipes that are going into the intercooler, before the intercooler since that is where the most pressure build up. And then close up the flange you had for the old BOV. At least this is what I've read on this forum in regards to dual BOVs.

How much boost are you running?

the most pressure will be between the turbos and the intercooler(s).

I switched to a pair of BOVs welded directly to the SFR end tanks; ZERO compressor surge now!!!! I have also found that small drivability surging (at zero low throttle angles) has disapeared, too. I think that was due to having the BOV so close to the MAF.

Finally, you could leave you old BOV in its current location, but I would just seal off that flange when you move the BOVs to the pre-intercooler location.

I love your setup its just that I can't do that because I have a Top Secret front end... bummer, I just like the symmetry on the bov's. Now If i never got my ic setup, I'd love to get something like the APS setup just for symmetry.

So bascially it doesn't really matter where along the compressor to IC reigon I put it on in the end? I mean theoretically wouldn't the initial pressure be the greatest right at the compressor wheels?

Another thing about location I figure is that, either being in the engine bay and under the car vs. both in the opening for the front bumper... main reason being that I want to limit the sound a bit, not completely but just don't want to attract every neon i drive by , and recirculating pipes is just more piping for me to worry about and more clutter imo. Thanks for the opinions, anyone else want to add?
