Idling and Stalliing Need Help

Thanks for the info. Did the turbo lag decrease or increase with the washers? Glad you're not having any problems with this bov. I really like this bov. ONly problem is that it flutters and the car would sometimes stall when in neutral braking or turning. I think I have a boost/vaccuum leak which needs to be located and fix. Hopefully this will help out the problem with the bov.

I think mines about at 900-1000 RPM. If I run into any more problems I think the BOV is the first thing I am going to replace.
Thanks for the information. Odd because when I first got the car, and no washer was use the turbo was spooling good. Now I have 4 washers and spool up seems the same as no washer except that there is less fluttering under partial throttle. My idle is around 900 -1000 RPM as well. During cold start my idle would be at 1500 but it would fluctuate up and down. I believe this is a sign of boost/vaccum leak.
I tried recirculating the BOV and no help. butt dyno says otherwise as well.
go with the hks eids. i had the same problem, after i got the hks ss, made it vent to atmosphere, it stalls and was hard to start, hsk eids will electronically adjust your idle at start up. then you'll be fine
