Default yes another bov question

i hear that bov's are bad for your car but if im not mistaken, you can tune your car to where it doesn't have any negative effects?

Someone else wanna tackle this one. I have seen alot of info here that says that it is very difficult/expensive to tune out the negative effects of a BOV but someone else will probably be able to answer better.

PS-Hope you have Nomex undies

PPS-Search is your friend

I would say search. There are alot of BOV threads, even though half of them have been closed.

i have searched but im just saying with a protune it should run fine. yes a bov can have negative effects its just for sound blah blah blah, but with a tune so the car isn't running super rich it should be fine is all im saying. all the forums about bov's are just people saying its has negative effects for your car, but thats not completely true because with a good tune it should work fine if im not mistaken =)
