Pod + no BOV = Loud rattle snake Std paper Filter + no BOV = very tiny bit of rattle snake. Std paper Filter + TS BOV = Loose setting (Pssshhhh...Pssshhhh) tight setting (Pssshhhh) No intake pipe + TS BOV = explosion of psshhh + rattle snake These are the facts......on 5.6 psi!!!

Not sure if it sounds like a vl turbo but since the vl doesnt use a bov I'd assume it sounds similar (the rattle snake that is).When the std BOV was disconnected I did block the vacuum hose...the bov was still there but since its reverse vented and only for a test I didn't think I would loose much/any boost. If you blocked the bov, put a pod on the end of the 4 inch ribbed hose, and had 10psi...........you would have a hell of a big rattle snake under the bonnet.
