I just spent the better part of my morning diagnosing / fixing a pesky problem with my BOV. After the 5th time I hit my head on the hood, I thought there's got to be a better solution: why not replace the BOV with an electrically actuated valve, triggered by the Throttle Position Sensor? No leak at partial throttle or high boost, no transient flutter, nanosecond response time - why isn't someone doing this?

So I googled, and found this http://autospeed.drive.com.au/cms/A_2188/article.html



A complete writeup on how to make an electronic BOV! Leave it to the Aussies... Now if somebody like WORKS would built/test/sell one for my lazy *** that would be perfect - in the mean time who wants to be a guinnea pig?

 

thats an awesome idea, makes all the bov related problems dissapear.

 

hey thats a good idea. ill buy one if its inexpensive.
