well i found this last night and i just hope is not a re post, the guy is a moron but there are bits and pieces that are very good things to know. Maybe this will explain why our 2.4 autos want to die at stop lights considering that they idle allot lower than 5 speeds.

I don't know about anyone else, but I've never had any problems with my 2.4 turbo auto dying at a stop, bogging, bad throttle response or any of that. It runs and drives just like it was stock, just with a lot more power when the turbo spools.

spilner this is GA_turbo from aleromod whats up.... i post it this cause to a point some of it makes sense and explain how turbo surge is produce and what to do to fix it, plus i was bored and i found it interesting at the time.
Hey also i want it to ask you a couple of ? also but ill talk to you on aleromod.
The company that makes that product like to rig well know products from other companies to "fail". A properly functioning BOV is just fine (probably a hell of a lot better that his system).
The 2.4 program has a flaw that causes it to stall regardless of being turbo or N/A.

Agreed. I see nothing different about this BOV than any other good valve out there, other than the fact that it stays open at idle. They say it allows air to enter closer to the throttle so it doesn't have restriction going through the turbo and charge pipes, which is supposed to give better throttle response, but it closes instantly when the throttle is opened, so I see no advantage.

One of the funny things is that in one of his videos he claims that the fault with the TiAL is that it will remain open at idle and his closes. In several of his videos I have seen his BOV staying open. If you use the correct spring in a TiAL it will vent when supposed to yet remain closed when supposed to. If you have a car with a MAF his BOV would reek havoc with the engine controls.
