I know a guy that bought a '85 Conquest. Since it isn't a TSI it has no front mount or bov. Well, he goes and buys a RFL, cuts a hole in the charge pipe, has a piece of exhuast pipe welded into it, and puts the bov on. Well, I come by there later that evening, and he tells me that it isn't working anymore. So, I pop the hood, and no vacuum source to the bov. I look at him puzzled, and said no wonder it don't work, it don't have a vacuum line. He looks at me, and goes it was working earlier and starts revving the crap outta it. I tell him to stop, and ask what the crap he is talking about, and he had cut the spring so much that it would open without a vacuum source. I about crapped on myself, and I had thought that I seen it all. Has anyone heard of this one before? I know he don't know nothing about turbo cars, but man, you just don't go cuttin stuff you don't know about.

That is one of the craziest things that I have ever seen/heard of. I just stood there, shocked. I don't know if he ever had the car running good, or if he gave up. He got a loan to buy performance parts/tune-up parts for it, but instead bought pedal covers, shift knob, bov, cold air for a honda, and other crap. I lost interest in helping when I seen all the junk he got. I told him to do a tune-up, then start with bpu's. He also bought a boost controller and wanted to know why it wouldn't go over 9 psi. Shew, poor car. Just had to turn the head and walk away. Anyone know anyone like this!

Bah. My 2g came with a BOV that opens without vacuum.

heard a kid say this... "but why would you have a BOV on an automatic? It won't make a noise unless you shift"

Haha. Those little, plastic 2G BOVs are so cute. 1G metal. Strong like bull.
