i wanna install a Blow Off Valve on my SVO, but everyone has told me that it'll run mad rich and Die. so tryin to figure out a way to upgrade the Air Sensor System so it won't do that once a Blow Off is installed. Thanks ahead of time.

Run a blow through VAM but then you need to mess with the VAM to get it running right

You basically take the VAM and flip it around to the other side of the turbo. Clicky:

Could install bypass valve goes from output of turbo to input. This way I did it on my 89 when I went to FMIC.

Can hear it some. But since dumping into the turbo it is muffled. People at stoplights have asked me about the turbo becuase they heard it and seen the 2.3 turbo emblems. They didn't know about the 2.3 turbo. But then again they were ricers. The cold air intake makes the most noise. Here is video of sound inside of car. I am running c-4. Let trans shift on its on from dead stop.

Video of FMIC show Bypass valve better.

If I was to redo I would go with water intercooler and narrow radiator like Huber has on his car. Lot less piping and connections.
