^ hey cinc send me your splitter as a x-mas present to me

 

your selling your car. Plus my brothers passat is getting it.

 

Seen this many times on a variety of VAG cars, results vary. One car we dynoed was making 30 bhp less with the BOV as opposed to the recirculating.
The problem being that the system is a closed loop system where air is recirculated internally, so the system monitors airflow in and out, when you vent this from a vent to atmosphere DV this air goes out unmonitored and the system will think either there is something wrong or make the wrong compensation losing power.

 

then you guys deffinatly were using the wrong bov

A twin piston bov like a forge 004, baileys, samco sport, tial 50mm, or even a HKS ssqv wont cuase any problems or rob the car of power

 

WE weren't using the wrong BOV, this was already fitted by the customer, so he was

Some of the systems don't compensate as well as others so it's always bad to generalise.

 

since someone does something wrong, you can lump everything simular together.

 

In the same way you've just lumped all 1.8T's together.

 

uummm what? I didnt say they all were. I said a certain part would work.
