Still Plugging away at the @>#

@># = 2.3 didnt want to put it in the title as it stirs up to much controversy. :evilgrin:

I had some problems with "Trailer-Hitching" upon decceleration in my TC when I was running a Forge 004 BOV. I have the Stinger FMIC setup with a T3/T4 Hybrid running 20PSI. So I decided to try a High Pressure Bosch BPV and had the same results "Trailer-Hitching".
Now that I had 2 types of "pressure relief valves" I figured with as much tubing as that boost pressure has to travel from turbo to throttle, maybe I needed a bigger outlet. Instead of buying more stuff, I decided to try both valves, one at either end of the system.
I have the BOV right in front of the Throttle body and the bypass right after the turbo and the results were amazing. I get the sound of a BOV and virtually no "Trailer-Hitching" at all.

The only other thing I have to do is get that  PCV system to be more efficient, so my  oil stops blowing all over the place.

I still have some ignition gremlins going on at WOT but I have a new Motorcraft TFI module to put in place of the NAPA piece and a couple of other Motorcraft Items to put in. Also removed that  MSD, think that had contributed to some of my troubles.

Anyway we shall see.
