Are you venting to atmosphere or recirrculating it?

I have a 1999 s70 awd (ME7). I am using a Turbo XS BOV. It is being vented to the atmosphere. Other then the fact that TURBO XS's are known to leak I have not had any adverse affects from having this installed. It does make your car run rich for the second that it is open though.

Now I would reccomend a HKS SSQV to you. These sound great and are great quality. This is the way to go.
