Do a search in the turbo section, there's a couple of BOV threads in there.

I have a Tial Blow off valve to. I'm getting tired of sending my turbo off to get rebuilt and all it was is the copper thrust bearing
worn out. I'll see here shortly if it works

William what are your running your turbo in? Did you get that car running yet? If so I am anxious to see it.

Tial BOVs are known to be one of the best, if not THE best BOVs made. You can find them on ebay for $195, I bought mine with a silver finish from extremePSI (vendor out of Pennsylvania that sells on ebay). It makes perfectly logical sense that bovs will extend the life of the turbo by letting off all that back pressure when the thottlebody closes.. Anywho, there's my 2cents

whats the minimum and maximum psi these Tial BOVs can handle?

I run a Greddy Type R which is the biggest of the Greddy BOV's. Its rated at a little over 30lbs. A bit pricey but you get what you pay for.

I am getting a Blitz SS BOV off a 12 second eclipse put onto my car this week, just in time for one last test drive before she goes into the garage.

I don't know exactly how much air the Tials can handle. I DO know that the 50mm they sell is one of the biggest and most capable available, period. It will handle anything a street driven car can dish out, that's for sure.
