Default C30 T5 BOV

Hey Guys

Does anybody know if it is possible to run a BOV on C30 T5?

I will really appreciate your help!

Anything is possible and I don't see why you couldn't. I don't know much about the C30's but you have a few options from what I know for other Volvo's.

1. Attach it via a flange to your Aluminum intercooler pipes. If yours aren't Aluminum and are plastic your screwed.

2. Attach one via a "T" splitter and cut your upper intercooler turbo HOSE and insert the "T" splitter and then attach the BOV to the "T" splitter.

OK, thanks for the information.
Do you know how is with the CBV, because as I know it is possible to block it and attach BOV instead (of course on intercooler pipe), but I am not sure how is on the C30? Do you know anybody here who has S40 and is running a BOV? It will be a lot easier, because it is quite the same engine also in C30.
My intercooler pipes are aluminum, so it is possible to put the flange on it , but I am not sure what will happen if I have both-->CBV and BOV?I heard that you can get enginefailure on screen??

I ran both my CBV and BOV at the same time no problems.
