Daniel,
Thanks for clearing up the Soobie bit, good to see my memory still works ok
some of the time. speaking of Possum Bourne I heard a news report on the NZ
round of the WRC and he came outright 6th. I reckon that's a good effort no
matter how well you know the local roads, you've still got to be good to get
amongst those guys and their machines.

Terry,
It's not my 120y, It's just someone I know (Z18T). In the standard scooby
the BOV vents back into the inlet. He just ran a pipe off the outlet which
vents to the atmosphere. From what I've seen off the car it is very
effective. He can have the car on partial throttle an the BOV opens so when
he nails it, the turbo is up to speed. BTW he told me that Possum Bourne
use the standard WRX BOV on his rally car so this must count for something.
