[quote author=QUICKMCSS link=board=7;threadid=17437;start=0#163571 date=1059056829]<br>Your best bet is to go to a DSM (dimond Star Motors) web site like this one http://www.dsm.org/menu.epl?item=1 those are a bunch of &quot;free mods&quot; as they call them. You can up your boost on those things with a trip to the pet store. Those are fun little cars. Mine was a 91' TSI AWD 5spd. Mod the air box/can on your car if it hasnt been done. On mine all I did was take the silencing horn off and you could hear that little baby turbo spool. <br>[/quote]<br><br>Thanks alot very helpful site!

Re:Blowoff Valve?

I heard that the reason you cant put a BOV on our trucks from the factory is cause they have no Butterfly valve (engine brake). Is that true or not?

Although an Engine brake has a Butterfly valve, the Engine Brake goes in the Exhaust, creating backpressure, a &quot;butterfly valve&quot; goes in the intake to create a vacuum in the intake manifold.<br><br>Hope this helps.<br>Merrick Cummings Jr

Well ford's have a butterfly valve that closes when it needs to warm the motor up quciker and its right where the E brake would be.

Re:Blowoff Valve?

Yah,, rip it out.<br><br>It does exactly what an e-brake would do, but, it is a general Ford idea,,,, Half-Way. Doesn't heat it up, doesn't slow it down but, it does make more backpressure,,, :

It heats it up and slows it down pulling a 7K trailer going down hill doing 75 and took the cruise off and it stayed at 75 kinda slowed it down maybe a mile or too.
