:00000732:

I doubt it, for a couple reasons:

1. sounds like you are venting your BOV to atmosphere. Read FAQ's for the reasons why this is bad

2. your bigger turbo is a big problem if you don't upgrade your fuel system

you are in the same situation I am. I bought a talon AWD with aftermarket parts and am still trying to figure out what is on the **** thing :thumbsup:

Stock 5.0 is slow as balls. Seriously, and half of them you find are beat and worn out. The rest are not stock and will rape you.

honestly a 5.0 is slow... i would not have bought the car for the simple reason that you didnt do the work, i can never buy a moded car, you dont know what the other guy did and what he peiced together, other then that it sounds good, but a bigger turbo might mean slower off the line seeing as it wont spool up as fast.

it comes off the line reallly quick, but it does vent hard and fast..... i will post a pic of the bov so u guys can check it out, there is a line disconnected, there used to be a filter on it but i took it off while trying to smog it. how would i recirculate that?
what fuel pump should i use?

the 5.slow is bad stock. But after about 2-3 grand in mods, those things can easily run a 11 or 12
