why???
my car now at 8psi feels faster than it did at 14psi.
but this thread was about the BOV. i have it working just fine now. lets end it before the inevitable arguing about stock intercooler, stock turbo, efficiency blah blah blah starts.
thank you...

YO .....YOU HAVE TO FIX THE DIRECTION THE FEED AND RETURN ARE FACING ...BY HAVING THE TURBO FEED FACING SIDEWAYS THE TURBO WILL BREAK.....THE FEED IS SUPOSE TO FACE UP....IF NOT YOU WILL CREATE LACK OF RETURN FLOW ....

stock turbo is ineficient @10psi, or its blowing really hot air.
a larger turbo is blowing cooler air @10psi, so the top mount works a little better with a bigger turbo than with the stocker
Gets REAL friggin hot with a big turbo and a stock top mount, 8 psi made the same power as 15psi on the silver car w/o meth...

wow yea aurosting points out a VERY important fact here...
your turbo is installed completely wrong.
The oil feed line should be pointing straight up, oil return line should be straight down. The return is not pressurized so the way you have it setup is 90 degrees off, it will cause oil to pool and your car probably smokes like a mother.
