BOV install

[RaggedEdgePerformance]

I have an m7 with an aero 53 on it and am wanting to put a BOV on it but I do not know where to hook the lines to it on the Bov that I have it has a port on the top and one on the under side of the plunger

any help would be great
THANKS

There are a few ways that I have seen but if it is a dual port(delta p style) valve then the bottom gets direct boost from the front side of the throttle bodies. The top gets connected behind the throttle bodies. The preload on the spring which is determined by the spring itself and the adjuster screw at the top of the valve is what keeps the valve closed at part throttle. This is needed because at part throttle there is more pressure front side than on the back side. At WOT pressure is equal so the valve stays closed. When you chop throttle then you have a big pressure differential with the bottom port having a spike in pressure and forces the valve open.
I also have seen and done the single line off of the air box to the top port on the valve and the bottom vented to atmosphere. The valve blows off but not as quickly as the duel line method. The larger volume of air on the valve over rides the boost on top of the valve and spring pressure.
I hope this helps.

thanks for the help that does help

Why use one. That's one of the benefits of running the aerocharger is you don't need one. I had a 53 on my 800 RMK and had no problems with it. The surge line is very soft on the aerochargers.

This is great info.

I found a good link this morning on BOV's, you may find this beneficial: http://www.siliconeintakes.com/stpg.php?page_id=bov
