Message I thought it was a typo, yet you did it over and over again.

FYI: The HKS kits that are commonly installed on the Z32 are not recirculating at all. I have yet to see an HKS BOV installed in such a way that it recirculates the intake charge back into the compressor inlet.

The main reason BOV's are added to road cars in production is to stop the annoying noise as the tip airflow at the compressor blades goes supersonic, against a closed plenum throttle valve."

Sorry, but someone fed you a load of crap here. BOV's relieve compressor surge. This eliminates shocking the thrust bearings and helps maintain compressor spool.

I fail to see how BOV's reduce any of this supersonic noise you speak of...its not a muffler. Don't you realize people buy BOV's because of the noise they create? If people got wind that BOV's decrease any kind of noise they would stop buying them. Damn talk about a disaster for the economy....
