I am really curious about the blow off valve and changing it to one thats louder. Will it affect the performance of the mini "S", use more fuel....etc...? i always wondered why people never change them in most euro cars. i didnt know if it held the same with the mini or not. the stock BOV is cool sounding but i like the louder ones better. haha, its fine if theyre bad just wanna know.
P.S. Ive never owned a turbo vehicle. Sorry if i sound dumb. Also so for all my questions all the time. theres alot i wanna know.

I installed one in my wife's R56. Took me about 30 minutes and is quite noticable. We have a youtube of me driving it after. I don't think it has harmed peformance at all. I am not sure if it has helped any but some say since it relieves that pressure the turbo has built up it allows the turbo to spin more freely and get on the boost faster.
yea, i really love the sound of that. The forge are the only ones that ive seen for the MINI anyways, unless i got universal. But thats what im going to get. where did you order yours from because i never saw one for 75$ shipped? thanks :)

I swear I responded to this post when I was at home for lunch.... Brian it will take you about 30 minutes to install this part, just make sure the engine has cooled for at least 6 hours
