sorry, but isnt compressor surge a bad thing? exhaust gas slapping the turbine in the reverse direction ? my friend has the HKS SSBOV on his 88 supra. really loud whistle. i like it a lot.

well, i guess it isnt so much bad, but it wears out the turbine quicker(more friction) thats why the whistle BOV's are supposed to be better for the setup. problem is, in some states, they are illegal b/c they are an unfiltered release of gas.
