Recirculating vs Blow off valve

Both are blow of valves. One just dumps to the atmosphere and one recirculates the air, or keep the air in the system. The way this car is designed, recirculating is better. The maf meters however much air your car sucked in. If you dump the air into atmosphere, it skews the fuel trims. People like atmospheric because you get the sweet noise. Hope that helps.
That's pretty much what all my research is showing too, I'm kinda wanting that abnoxious "whooosh!" But iv3 come across things like the exhaust making a 'popcorn' type noise during a cold start. Not sure I it's related or performance detrimental but it's kinda a turn off

The BOV has nothing to do with the popcorn start. That's strictly from the tune, it might have something to do with the tune being able to run a BOV. The point of the BPV is to not have to wait as long for boost, but if we're being real, on a stock turbo it almost doesn't matter. Just make sure you're tuned so you can run it. I have the BOV, it makes sweet noises, but after those noises, if I put my foot on the gas and let off quickly there's no noise, but if I hold it for like 2 or 3 seconds there's noise.
The whoosh though you'll get from a CAI with the stock valve. The Forge is more of a pst. The Forge BPV also makes pst noises, they're just quieter and sound more refined I think, I can't remember how that one sounds.

They can tune for it if you mention it when you purchase the tune (and you should do so). If you want the cool noise, do it, because your not really talking about much performance anyways.

You should probably get the tune first. If you have the tune you can just install it. It does not matter. It's good to go! If you install it without being tuned then yeah, you might **** something up eventually, but you should be fine anyway. Now the only thing left to say is to insert a crazed Shia Labeouf here.
Something else though, big turbo, I'll PM you soon about emissions and stuff, can you make sure your messages have space please.

Order the tune and BOV together. Install BOV and then flash tune all in same day. Done deal.
Agnostic- no problem.

Actually a tune from BNR requires you to send them a file of your cars tune and then a week later you get a base tune, and then you can ask for updates.
Make sure you get at least one extending magnet or you're gonna have a bad time.

I stand corrected. Its been a long time since I have used a BNR tune. Used to say what you had, flash, data log, then send them data log.
