You just saved me $20 thanks, I just bought the rps bov and a bunch of miscellaneous flanges and crap for my install.

how bad is running no bov (didnt really know people did that/ i guess it wouldnt be a problem if i ran the car up to my fab guy w/out one?)

is that the case about about having to use a bypass valve and not just any bov??

thanks guys

When one isnt enough anymore..id think around the 1000 hp mark your moving enough air to justify 2 but im sure it varies by car
