Clearly we have crossed signals here.

I didn't mean to state it as the root cause. It was my first suspicion. I sorta scratched it off the list when I had my brother hit the gas and it closed up. After doing the test runs with it cranked down. Newb mistake? Evidently so.

If you have the time to explain the difference between how BPV that vents to atmosphere vs a BOV are different I'd love to hear it. My understanding is when the throttle shuts down they both relieve pressure to eliminate surge. Is the difference due to how they perform under vacuum/boost?

Also I would cite my link above. They are marketed as the same thing so you can see how it might be confusing especially since it doesn't recirculate the air in this case
