Jarvis, The easy "improved stock" replacement is to get a stock BOV for a Spirit R/T (they are good to about 17 psi). I bought one for my car but now that I have a computer that goes to 20 psi, it won't really work for me. If you want to get this one, I'll send it to you for $20 shipped.
PS, yes, you're right about it venting boost and loosing performance.

We have a '90 Lebaron GTC VNT with high miles. The BOV is shot as evidenced by the very obvious fluttering when you lift your foot off the gas. We still get plenty of boost and power. Question 1: Is this something that I need to fix to protect the turbo? I would think that a weak BOV would not actually put extra stress on the turbo, but might limit boost. Dangerous or no? Question 2: What options are there for aftermarket ones? Any recommendations? The car is essentially stock. The thing is that my small amount of research suggests that aftermarket BOV's try to be loud on purpose. I would really rather not be loud. Nice and quiet for this car is just fine. Can I get a decent quality quiet aftermarket BOV? Thanks for the help! later... Jarvis -|--- -----------------------REMOVE-FOOTER-WHEN-REPLYING---------------------------- Questions?
