Default RE: Help with BOV...

Ok well I think I will get rid of it and either put in the Forge 007 DV or Hyperboost HX. Everything in the car as of now is what came with it when I bought it. I am cerious as to what is bad about Wetterauer?

I was just kiddin about the "are you ok with that?" thing.. Sort of.. Before I got chipped, when I was researching them, I came accross some people who had bad experiences with that chip on audiworld.com and audizine.com. I honestly cant remember specifics, but i think some people were having limp/closed loop mode problems with it, and some fault codes. But then some people have those same experiences with giac and apr... If you had problems with it, im sure we'd be hearing about them. So rock on with your bad *** chip!!! Shoulda got giac's k04 file though, its way more aggressive i think...

like 22 or so. But more boost does not necessarily = more HP/TQ

One more question about this. What kind of DV will be a direct fit replacement for the BOV or what kind of changes will I need to make?



Thanks

Your DV won't go into the same spot as your BOV. They are in totally different spots. Your DV will be under your car in front of the passenger wheel. If you do a search you can find a diagram explaining how the DV hoses go and what exactly it is hooked up to.
