not entirely true. a BPV is a dual purpose valve. it works on pressure changes. when your car is in vac, the valve is OPEN, which allows air to BYPASS the turbo and enter the intake piping behind the turbo allowing better air volume to flow less restricted into the engine. when you step on the gas and go from vac to boost, the BPV will close due to the change in pressure. it will remain closed allowing you to boost untill you let off the gas and the pressure changes again, at that time to BPV reopens and allows the pressurized air to exit back into the intake before the turbo. this allows the pressure to even out across the turbo, once it does, air continues to flow in through the BPV bypassing the turbo. This is why you CANNOT vent the factory BPV to the atmosphere. because under vac it allows unmetered air to enter the engine causing it to lean out and idle rough, eventually you will lean the car out to a stall. its BY FAR the best system over any aftermarket system, even the SSQV if you have a AFM. --------------------  Believer, you'll leave her, in leaving them all No but I don't buy it Like anything you do, as anyone you are Cause I'm...
