Like what was stated before in this thred:

You only need a BOV if you are running high PSI. Like over 18 or 19. Then there is a need for it, not to damage your turbo. But stock doesnt need it.

Whats more important to you? A cool sound or your car running at top performance?
Ill let you make the call. Hope that helps.

Cool sound!!

oh sorry! my bad! ^^!

I believe a lot of members did this mod since it only take like 20~30mins or so. From most threads I read, there's pretty much no benefit at all and this doesn't do any harm to the car. All you get is cool sound effects(noise).

You simply remove the intake silencer which is inside the fender. After that, you can hear more from the turbo and the stock BPV(similer sound as a BOV).
