    Re: Bov

    the way the car was designed was to have the air recirculated. i personally run a full atmospheric bov. some people can do it just fine, some people run a bov and have problems with the car holding an idle, and running rich for a moment after you lift throttle. i imagine it could also throw a check engine light for running rich and possibly do some damage to u'r cat converter and/or o2 sensor. in the end, i would say give it a shot... if it works, awesome!!! if not, well then ya know. i have no problems with mine and others do have problems. i kno that some companies have a valve that can vent to atmosphere and also has an adapter you can plug a 1" hose into so it can be dv or bov...

    Ive had my 004 for a year and have had no problems at all, and a lot of owners will agree.
