if i had the 1.4t, i'd be interested in a better performing, quieter BPV. stealth sleeper. just my opinion.
Possible 1.4T BPV upgrade coming soon!

I have the 1.4t and I can not imagine a quieter BPV.
Better performing, hmmm. It does the job, how much better performing could the BPV be?

It could possibly unload the intake pressure faster during throttle closure between shifrs on a manual trans. That pressure creates undesired heat and friction even during moderate driving conditions.

That's natural for a turbo.
Boost is dependent on load, etc which changes through the RPM band.
If you want solid boost you need a Boost controller.

It is not that.
Size of the turbo isn't the problem.
As I pointed out above, there's a "peak boost" for any tubro car that doesn't have an electronically variable boost control system.
As load changes through the RPM range, so does boost. (higher loads help create boost)
So when the load starts tapering off in the higher RPMs, a mechanical boost control system will also vary.

Its been 5 months BNR since you've posted this exciting new idea... if its a lack of commitment from all of us on this forum and others please lets put this to a poll to put your mind at ease. I think I can speak for all of us(1.4T owners) that we are awaiting your response of more good news with your R&D of this upgraded BPV. :banana:

Can't wait for the that at all... Sounds pretty sick... Be awesome if we can see one that can put back pressure into the intercooler. Was watching this thing on valves the other day. Seen they had one that has a valve inside you can tune to create a lil pressure that backs up into the intercooler between shifts so you already have a few psi stored in a larger area basically not really for extra power but snappier throttle and less boost time. Thought it was cool I swear so many gadgets have been made in the six years I left college to work on vehicles.

Sorry to hear that. I'm bumping for BPV.

Who better to test the BPV than your first 1.4 customer
You're near the top of the list, believe me.
