Anyone ran one of these on their sho? Is a aftermarket bov a decent upgrade for these? Just wish the turbos were a little louder. This isn’t vta so there shouldn’t be a negative impact affect on performance. Any other bov recommendations?

There’s no effect on performance if you VTA. A lot of folks just VTA and that’s what I did, even with EPP hot pipes I opted for stock BOV locations and just VTA. Some ppl buy the EPP hot pipes and get it with a TIAL bov as an option.

Unless you buy the Suction Return Kit and custom fab the return piping, this is a VTA system. If you use the kit listed, you will get the noise because it is VTA. They claim with the return kit, you will get more noise but, it will be muffled because it is going back into the stock piping.

We worked with Mike last year to begin offering this, and it is available for the SHO/MKS/Explorer Sport hot pipes. I do need to finalize pricing with him, but it is available.
I also need to follow up with GoFastBits. We worked with them last year to finalize the Gen1 F-150 BOV they offer, and it sparked conversation about developing an upgraded BOV/Bypass Valve for the SHO as well. I sent them the factory charge pipe off my car and an extra Bypass Valve so they could get dimensions and do some mock up, then got busy and never thought about it until I saw this post. It would allow you to upgrade to their mechanical/boost hybrid BOV system while reusing the factory mounts.

Just sent them an email, didn't realize it's been nearly 2 years since our last communication. If I hear back from them with positive news I'll be sure to share it
Thanks for that, i had read somewhere that vta wasn’t good for the sho turbo system so thanks for clearing that up!
