Hi guys

on my let nova the recirc valve thingy is blocked on the turbo..

Can i run the car without using a dumpvalve and run full boost or will it need to be connected?

Put a new one on, I wouldn't want to run a turbo without some form of relief valve

What he said ^^^^^^ the best thing that'll happen is you'll get turbo stall and the pidgeon noise which will kill your turbo over time.

me and a mate both ran let's with no dump valves and standard dump valve blocked and had no probs at all, and he was ringin the turbos neck by running 1.2 bar, i got a bigger turbo but he still running his and its fine.

The amount of boost doesn't really matter, turbo stalling is baaad
