Ultimate Guide to Parameter Monitoring?

Sorry I wrote that late last night, its the other way around. No it closes when you are building boost to control the levels. At full Wot it should be fairly constant. This fully depends on your tune. For instance mine is set at 70% when at full boost. The reason we have bpv is because we have a recirc system, the air once sucked in is accounted for and a percentage of fuel is calculated for that metered air. ShoulD it be expelled from the system, a bov, that air is not missing and your afr now has to much fuel causing a rich condition which is the black smoke/backfire that people not tuned for bov get.

Msf bucks can be used to join raffles.

Thanks for the clarification. So both BPV and BOV will have this WGDC value, right? It's just a BPV sends the expelled air back to the turbo and a BOV vents to atmosphere?

Also, what about other parameters like:
EGT
Oil Temp
Coolant Temp

And any others anyone else thinks would be useful, whether Stock or Tuned...
