Default Running 2 bovs ..

Hey,

before i say anything more, please dont grill me, its just a question ..

is it possible to run 2 bovs with a front mount? my friend has a ssqv on hes car atm and he can get hold on a sard r2d2 real cheap and was wondering if its possible to weld the r2d2 on another area of the fmic piping and have them work simultaneously?

i know its not 'normal' but hes an idiot and he like making hes car different.

please let me know

Cheers
-Nick

It can work, but really only works on cars with

a) twin turbos
b) LOTS of boost and one BOV cant vent enough pressure.

Anything else is well gay.

I'm with Paul on that one....

More BOVs with same boost pressure = less pressure to each BOV = less noise.

Why not have a plumback into the cabin so that you can really hear the psssh

Maybe have it facing upwards from the end of hte passenger seat so that chicks skirts get blown up on gearchange.
