    Yeah they are only $70 new. I'm sure a suction cup mount can be had for less than $30

    So if I unplug the bov and it cures my issue the I need to figure out how to recirculate it?

    I definitely get what y'all are saying but what I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around is why it still wants to stall even when the bov doesn't open

    Yeah those are 150ish new I think. Not sure why anyone like them over the ultragauge. The scangauge has a tiny ass screen.

    :laughing: That's actually why I like the Scangauge. I don't like how big the ultra gauge is. Just personal preference though.

    I think I would rather have the bigger screen. Already hard enough to watch boost and the wideband while driving WOT lol

    Nah dawg, it was hard enough a couple months ago when we went. I bet that place is soaked already with all the rain we keep getting.

    Well it seems as though the atmospheric bov is indeed the issue.. Dammit. That's my favorite part of a turbo setup. I unhooked the bov and capped the intake port and it only stalled once when I clutched in. I hooked the bov back up and it would stall every time unless I bumped the gas a few times
