WHY CANT BMW's....

Why cant bmw's especially M3's have BOV. I DONT UNDERSTAND. I know i sound like a little kid saying this, but that sound is worth a million bucks.

Anybody have a good answer.

Because BMW doesn't have any factory produced turbo cars.

If you like the sound so much, go out and buy one of the noisemakers that so many of the ricers have.... Little thing that sounds like one, but actually does nothing....

BOV's or blow off valved are usually used by cars that are boosting using a turbo(s) or supercharger or ricers that want that ppsshhh though a speaker in the engine bay... wooo wooooo! You want a real bov... get ready to spend $3500 at least. Later.
