The Turbo XS unit actually worked well for me. it is adjustable, so you can tweak it as needed. I was quite skeptical at first, but once it was dialed in, worked surprisingly well.
Stock is a great way to go though.

Just sounds like a eBay turbo !! I know nothing about them so I can't knock them! What the price tag on one!!

He's not kidding. You have more than half the posts in this thread. This thread consists of more than half your total posts. It's excessive.
You'll find it's a generally older crowd here. Use proper spelling (spell check!), grammar, and punctuation and you'll get along fine here.
Oh yeah, and if you need to add something to a post you just made, don't make a new post, just edit your current one. There's no need to double post just to add a smilie.

I bought my car with the recirc. tube pulled off, and the BOV vta and no cap on the intake. I have no idea of the mods done to the car, and I think it has a 7-bolt swapped into it... would it be a good idea to put the tube back on or cap off the intake?
there's two types of air meters - pullthrough (factory vr4) and pushthrough (what you see on MAFT setups) the key is that you don't want to lose metered air, Ie, air past the meter.
A pullthrough is right after the air filter - so you want to recirculate rather than lose metered air.
A pushthrough is *typically* near the throttle body on the IC pipe on this car - if you have that and the BOV is before it, you can vent to air

Put the tube back, you need to recirc the CBV per the post above mine.

I understand the concept of metered air vs un-metered, but if the bov only opens when the throttle is suddenly closed (when changing gear for example) and is also closed at idle, does it really matter?
At worst you get a momentary rich condition whilst the engine is under zero load...
I ran with a vent to atmosphere hks blow off valve for about 6 years (with stock ecu/maf/etc) - until I got sick of the noise - and it produced no ill effects once I'd adjusted the bov so it stayed closed at idle.

It's just ricer bullshit all in the name of making some extra noise to gain attention. Even if it didn't affect performance it shouldn't be done just for the fact that it makes you look gay. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif
"Does it really matter"
Yes, on my car I noticed a big difference in "driveability" with the CBV vented to atmosphere. Many others have also experienced stalling, etc.
Some say they have "no ill effects" which I don't understand, but personally I did.

If memory serves me correct, I put a 95 GSX together when i was a noob to the mitsubishi thing, ran an Injen intake and Greddy RS bov vented to the air. Car had massive fuel cut problems all the way until... you guessed it, started recurculating. Solved a rich idle condition too... another way to vta is with i believe a speed density set up... but i could just be pulling that out of my a$$

They definitely do and they just don't know it.
