also, how did yall set up/install ur BOV's ??? i saw on another car one that didnt seem to me like it was done right, but... it just spat the steam out under the hood, so it just kinda leaked out the sides of the hood and rather than lookin pimp, just looked like crap, like the engine was smoking or somethin. how did yall set up/run urs ???

from what i've been told, dual bov's is only neccesary if you were running over 500hp, and even then not very necessary.
if your running over 30psi, then yea it might be something to consider
but otherwise no. i myself have a twin chamber bov from apexi
and its working just fine. but i did not instal it so, i don't know

i'm at 140,000 miles and it runs like a cheetah. its not that there bad to soup up but 2nd gen ar faster stock and i don't believe they come across fuel cut when boosting more. 2nd gen have more potential.
