Just wondering. I have heard of a popoff valve for turbos. Is this a mod you can do on a stock 350z?

A Popcharger is a type of air filter intake.

A popoff valve is something totally different. As you already know, it's for turbo applications used to bleed off boost.

Caution to any of those who are gonna oil their filters, be sure the excess is bled off. If not, it can damage the MAF sensor.
