Default BOV on SC idea

Thought popped into my head, maybe someone with some knowledge could explain why this would/wouldn't work.. On the SuperCharged TC's do you think if we could relocate the MAF sensor up onto the pipe close to the throttle body.. we could then throw a bov before the sensor. Similar to the SP turbo kit? Thoughts?

I thought about this also, but I believe that relocating the MAF will cause the CEL to come on. That is one of the things the intake manufacturers battle when they design kits for the tC.

im not familiar wit MAF sensors but would it be able to read accurately with turbulent air ?

you still have to custom the same diameter of metal charge pipes.

weld on a BOV flange adapter.


too much work just to get more woosh out of it. i still dont get why people just buy hybrids instead because they work.
