just wondering why T/R did not come with blow off valves??
is it wise to install them in our cars???
whats a good one if yes?

A valuable feature of this website is the "search" feature. Type in BOV and you will see an entire decacde of discussion.

They did not come with them because they do not need them. I will leave it at that.

was that technology out back then?

I think I read one time that the reason for no BOV in our cars is because all TB came with automatic tranys,but I could be wrong.

Yup....to relieve boost pressure under no-load (shifting). The automatics have a load on the motor almost all the time.

Hey if you like the sound, so be it. Money is better spent elsewhere imho.
