Re: bov/diverter valves
First is S4z who wants to hear the sound of money blowing off into the air...
After that is Jim who gets all hot over this diverter vs. blow thing...
Then is Black who sits back and enjoys just keeping it hot...
And here I come and say that when I first got my A4 I was disapointed not to
heare the "whoosh"... but then my 19 year-old son, with a condescending tone told me that I am wasting such a nice car... I should stick to my '79 Camaro!
Today he brought home an SR20 turbo to drop in his 200SX... he could not stand me driving a 1800cc making more power than his NA SR20... but he knows that his (new) 2 liter turbo will never outpower or outdrive my 1.8 liter!
And the moral of the story is that he will RECIRCULATE because (his opinion and mine too) that he must be hard pressed to "blow-off" that which the turbo works so hard to make: BOOST!

Re: bov/diverter valves
either way...back to the original post....you want the sound, go get an intake and 710N valves. You will hear the noise and it will be done properly.
notice i didnt say DV or BOV...just V.....now back to the argument.

Re: bov/diverter valves
dv diverts (recirculates) bov blows...to atmosphere. BOV bad for audi (unless hybrid valve) Dv good for audi. they essentially do the same thing hence the confusion. it's like asking for a kleenex....i mean tissue.....
