Does anyone of you guys use a dumpvalve on the chargepipe to keep off the stress on the turbo when closing throttle? Thinking on the ones not using intercooler...
Dump valve on m8T

Some do and some don't. The Boondocker pump gas setups don't but I believe all the twisted kits do.
This thread has some good info in it.

I ran a HKS on my m8t good valve simple just one vaccumm line tapped into the motor side of the throttle bodies worked great. It was located on the charge pipe as the sled did not have a IC. (cool sound too
)
I've got a cutler kit that Zollingers put a bov on, very happy with this kit. Can't say I notice a huge difference in response compared to the few other m8t's I've ridden with, but they were all pgt's & this one is a RG sled.
If it doesn't hurt responce & will give me more longeveity out of the kit, then I suppose it's worth it.

Do you have a picture where you put the vacum tap on the throttle body?

Nice pics.. But where on the throttle body is the vacum hose connected?
On a car the vacum for the BOV is connected after the throttle body... If not the vacumline would never "see" vacum, only boost from the turbo...

I just used the oil injection ports after removing the oil injection, if your using oil injection then you need to drill and tap just behind the throttle plate on top of the throttle body, I think its on top it has been awhile since I did an install with that set up. Some of the original BD kits did it that way.

^^^^ This is correct. on the kit I had I drilled at a 45 degree angle on the left side and the top of the throttle bodies, this is done on the vaccumm side or the motor side on a m8. Tapped it and threaded in the barb hooked the hose to that, and there is only one port on the hks valve, hook you line to that and your dancing.
I will see if I can dig up some pictures

I deleted my post due to boarderline retardation LOL
if someone wants pics of throttle bodies drilled and taped let me know, i did mine that way for my BOV. i will have to send the pics from my phone as i broke my camera 2 days ago
Please post them here on the forum..
here is one pic of the throttle body taped and one of the BOV
Anyone who know the vacuum reading on a M8 BD PG turbo on idle?
