huh? How does BOV keep your psi from shooting up? Boost control is the WGs job, not bov. BOV are initiated from vacuum, not boost.

As far as not using one, its not necessary however his computer knows nothing of the boost, since its aftermarket.

Explain what an inverter valve is, i've never heard of one. If you mean By-Pass Valve - then its the same thing as a BOV, except the excess air is re-routed into the intake.

A BOV is good for alot more than "sound effects." It helps increase spool up because the air is now not hitting the compressor wheel, slowing it down, and it helps turbo life, because of the same reason as before, the turbine wheel takes less punishment.

i agree. compressor surge is a turbos worst enemy
