88 2.3t Bov? Reply #1 – August 28, 2007, 12:46:51 PM Well yeah...you are venting metered air and thus causing the mixture to go rich. Quote Selected

88 2.3t Bov? Reply #5 – August 28, 2007, 01:33:01 PM If the BOV was after the VAM, then no. Still the same situation. Putting it before might cause some odd door flutter though....Make it recirculating (BPV) and not have the problem.I'm speed density now, so I use a BOV w/o an issue. Quote Selected
88 2.3t Bov? Reply #6 – August 28, 2007, 02:13:43 PM I believe gumby has a BOV that doesn't cause the stalling issue. Maybe he will chime in. Quote Selected
88 2.3t Bov? Reply #7 – August 28, 2007, 02:30:30 PM It's a given that it will fatten up the air/fuel mixture when it vents....that is what is causing the bog/stall. Quote Selected

88 2.3t Bov? Reply #10 – August 28, 2007, 09:45:58 PM I would recomend that you recirculate the BOV so it is a BPV. I know it is some work but if done right it does a lot more good. I ran mine as a BOV for a week. Had a slight stumble, Then I worked out the tubing to recirculate the air. BIG TIME difference. I routed it so that the air coming out of the BPV when straight into the Turbo inlet. With the added air blowing through there it helps keep the turbo spooled up. With the BOV I had 0psi after a shift. With the BPV routed like I have it 5psi after a shift. That is after the clutch is released and I push on the gas. So I would much rather have 5psi to build on instead of 0psi. I also have none of the stumble like before. Quote Selected
