I don't feel like looking up the gay-*** conversion table, just ******* tell me or I'm going to kick your ***...please.
38kpa is the magic #. I need to order a ***** pump...I mean blow off valve.

Tim, I'm still emailing you. I don't want compressor surge of course. My gauge reads 222 or so at idle, 28inhg on decel. What do you recommend?
Yes, tial Q.

I'd recommend whatever TiAL recommends cause I have zero experience with their stuff.

FWIW, I had to modify/machine my old-style FM BOV to open sooner/have less spring pressure with the current twins. It's open at idle. Otherwise it'd compressor surge just going from 10inHG vac to 15inHg vac cruising.
But your .86 is going to be so laggy it won't matter.

yes, my turbine is too big and compression is too low.

Better to go with too little. There's nothing wrong with it leaking at idle, just put a filter on the discharge port. Quiets it down a tad at the same time.
