I do not know if there is any truth to that as this is the first car I have driven with a turbo and bov's. I totally agree with the customer service part of things, I never expected near the support I have received from Marc and Rick!  |
that makes no sense.... i have a turbo car that i have put bov's on, taken them off, tuned, and modded in every which way, and blow of valves have nothing to do with starting the car. the only reason a bov can possibly make a car die is if the BOV is venting atmosphericly and your car is expecting that air that was just vented to be in the IC piping when the butterfly opens back up and its not. therefor your car is somewhat starved for air at that moment. this creates a temporary rich condition which can cause your car to stumble either between shifts or when going back to idle. BOV's play no part in the car starting tho.
