Wow Giuseppe, that looks fantastic! You have a great eye for details, well done

I particularly like shiny heat shields and in this shot we also get see how clean and tidy the engine bay is.
It is hard to imagine this car is more than 20 years old.

Good lord man, get a bigger exhaust! That is some seriously late spool from a td04

back with a little trouble, i am using a recirc bov like that one above,

but even at lower spring rate and setting, when over 8/9 psi turbo goes surge (or maybe flutter?) on off-throttle...

solution? get a sequential bov? hks or some cheaper (!) but good copy?

That's not unusual.

Where is the signal line connected? And is the bov before or after the intercooler?

Signal line is just after the TB and the BOV is after the IC

Yes that is more prominent than I would have expected at your low boost levels. Could you take a picture of the blow off valve as it is mounted currently? Where are you recirculating to?
