Default it will make the car run rich, waste more fuel, foul the plugs and basically make the car run crappy

your call.
5-20psi depending if stocked, chipped or BT'd

Default BOV's are not intended for our cars unless tuned specifically for them

Buy a diverter.

Default Re: does putting the LLtek D-bov on my 1.8 change boost pressure?

yea that is what i have heard but with the lltek d-bov i can close it all the way and it says that it is just the same as the stock diverter valve. i guess what i need to know is when the air goes through the stock diverter valve it goes back into the intake but after the air senser so there is no way for the car to know how much air is obeing dumped back in. there for i would need a boost gage. if i can get the boost pressure back to the stock booste pressure how can it be bad for my car??? i need some help here guys!

Default Buy a diverter, LLtek is poo-poo

Forge makes great diverter valves. The BOV is blowing off metered air, which will make you run rich.

Default just get a 710n and be done with it. BOV is waste of $$, and like others say, will make your car

run like "poo-poo".
