    Compressor Surge...IC Pipes or Bad BOV??

    Even if you had both BOV's installed, the air still has to get crammed into the 2" pipe then forced through the 2" intercooler, and back into 2" pipes up to the intake before the air can even see the BOV's... That is 11 feet +- of restrictions including the intercooler..:)

    Compressor Surge...IC Pipes or Bad BOV??

    Trying to blow 2.5 inches of air through less than 2 inches of pipe would be my main guess..

    compressor surge

    For me: I had surge on the stock BPV, Then I upgraded to a HKS SSQV which removed the surge, Then I upgraded the turbo and my surge is back at low boost, So.. I am going to upgrade to a second BOV just incase..:)

    Edit my post... Nevermind: My BPV sucks under vacuum. I thought they were one way valves, but they are not... Nothing to see here...

    compressor surge

    A few people here run two BOV's or BPV's to prevent surge as one SSQV may not be enough to vent fast enough at 15 psi... :dunno: Stock turbo??

    compressor surge

    If you turn up the boost to the point where your BOV or BPV can not vent fast enough then yes..

    Water as a fuel??? Watch this....

    Look at MDC's first post, It is already being installed in hybrid's http://hytechapps.com/applications/HHOS.htm But now that I look at the dates, I have to wonder if it got burried...:(

    compressor surge

    I will add that it can be caused from a BOV or BPV that is to small or not working properly. Not venting the boost fast enough where the excess air is forced back out the intake.
