Blow Off Valve Size

Since installing the SC on my SS the rpms fall VERY slowly when shifting. So much so that it makes it sound as though you don't know how to drive a stick. Sometimes when gearing down coming to a stop you can push the clutch in and coast to a stop and the rpms will still be at 2k once you stop and then slowly decrease down to the usual 1k. My questions is:

Does the BOV have anyting to do with this problem or is it likely in the tuning of the ECM?

Hi Ghost, I am experiencing the same issue. Also, when I first start it up some times, the engine revs like i was pressing on the gas pedal. Have you resolved your issue?


Yes, the new tune by @[email protected] took care of 90% of it. It is like riding a different sling. It is more drivable now than it was new.

Mine had the issue from the factory. Keep in mind that it only had 891mi on it when I pulled the drive train out and started modifying it. @[email protected] tune has made a huge difference and it now drives like it should have from the factory. All that being said I'm not certain that they have made a tune for the N/A slings like the one they now have for the boosted slings. A quick call to Dave could answer that question. Even if I had never boosted my sling, if I had known that there was a tune out there that would make that much difference in overall drivability I would have gladly paid the price. It really is night and day different.
I believe the gas mileage calculator will be off due to the changes in the fuel map and the fact that you have changed the size of the injectors.

Thanks. Is there a fix for this or am I just going to have to live with this?
I haven't done any research on it. I would think that anyone that could reprogram the ECU to properly fuel a boosted engine would be able to re calibrate the ratio used to calculate the fuel milage.
