Default BOV's

For all you BOV lovers out there (hopefully not too many), i just found out that my friend Nick's dad invented the BOV with a group of about 3 other guys. Search his name Peter Szadyr, he's from Lake Orion Michigan, which is where I'm from.

lol, gm began designing then but never ended up really using them because they dont have turbos, but anyway i meant to say that the only things that hondas have done to them "performance" wise are bov's. I tend to not think things thru sometimes, but you catch my drift....hopefully.

a BOV requires a turbo...a honda, typically doesn't have a turbo. Infact no stock hondas that I can think of off the top of my head. have turbos. [&:]
