    Mine has replaced the recircs.

    I heard that you will get a louder sound by putting them there??...and softer the closer you mount to the throttle body?

    Dont go blow off

    get plumb backs. Why waste presure when u can use it to spool up ur turbos faster. I have 2 which are adjustable if u do want to have them make noise but are always shut and just make a small noise but is very noticeable still.

    ehh??? use pressure to spool quicker?

    Sorry buddy, but you've got it a little backwards.If the pressure is not released the turbo's will be slowed down. Whether the pressure is released to the atmosphere or back into the intake makes no real difference to the turbo's spinning... When released back to the intake it is released into the hose that sits between the turbo and the air filter.The only use for the excess pressure is to keep the AFM happy that it has injected the right amount of fuel for the amount of air coming in (Plumb back).

    DAMN!! Here was me thinking that>

    the Theory of Perpetual Motion had finally been solved.
    Imagine a turbo(compressor) which feeds itself with compressed air(which it has conveniently compressed itself)and then speeds up, thereby feeding even more air into itself...and on...and on.8-}
    How the hell will we ever stop it:?) :D :D :D
