BOV to VTA

[DJE624]

That's odd.  I hear mine blow off fine but then again, I don't use the radio and you do have to really listen for them.  Did you hear geswek's snow video?  I can also hear the turbos spool at about 1500-1800 with the Typhoon.  They sound a little raspy up front to me when they spool.

My only concern is turbo spool. I've don't the conversion but doesn't the recirculation force air and keep the turbos spooling whereas now it has to gather only air from the outside

When the turbos are spooling, they start sucking through the intake.  Blow off is when they are "unspooling".

Im not saying I cant hear it, but to me its not noticeable. If I snap my foot off the gas, and have the radio off, I can hear it, but that's not normal driving. Maybe ill notice it more when I have the windows down, but even then, I do audio systems for a living, and love music and sound quality, and windows down, kills sound quality.

I really only notice it when the windows are down, which is not often in the winter.

Mine is quite audible however I have the typhoon system as well

Just remove the hose that goes from each BoV to the CAC (turbo intake tube)... Be sure to cap the nipples left on the CAC.... Hi temp is the only requirement for the caps... I used silicon... others have had great luck with chair leg caps etc.

Really it's that easy... the rear one is hard to reach, but it's basically 4 hose clamps removed and 2 nipples capped. There are some pics in my hotpipe install thread that may help.  It's here: http://www.ecoboostperformanceforum.com/index.php/topic,2248.msg32460.html#msg32460

Hope this helps.

Did this on my 2012 f150 http://youtu.be/UNDasyYArxU








Stock best 14.87s @ 91mph
i troll these streets eH

I had VTA on my list prior to a tune, but after installing the tune, I can easily hear the blow off even with the valves in their stock recirculating setup. I do not have a modified air box, so I'm surprised that I can hear it after reading some of the comments in this thread. The sound is present with the daily driver tune (15psi) and the beast mode tune (18psi). Maybe I should VTA just for comparison's sake. It's pretty loud already...

I'm considering going back to stock for a bit

[MDesign Performance]

With my intake system my VTA is pretty noticeable to the point where other drivers notice, the tune made it much more effortless to replicate at my disposal.

Just did this little mod on my 2011 PP, sounds great and very noticeable by other drivers, especially other drivers with turbos that have a BOV that VTA.  I used the rubber chair ends from Lowes, only 2 bucks and 5 mins to install.  This was way cheaper then spending the 200+ bucks for a BOV that I spent on my O6 Subaru STi.

THanks,
