Alright alright, now I feel bad. Go research what a BOV's function/how it works is then you will know why its such a dumb question.

I think Mcgyver is puerto rican, give him a set of vise grips and some electrical tape and he can fix anything.

You do have a point. These kind of replies could definitely persuade people to no longer ask questions here. Which in turn would defeat the purpose of the forums. Oh well, time will tell. However I will reidirate to "SEARCH!"; Google, msn, etc. before posting a question on here. It's always easier to obtain the basic knowledge yourself, then seek the more in depth infor here. That's unless your sick and like the abuse. And ditto to everyone elses answer about the BOV.

If people post "dumb" question and then feel discouraged and dont want to drive a maxima then they have more issues than how to get the BOV sound on their N/A car. As to you learning more with the 300GT than here what is your point? Is the Maxima forums suppost to be teaching its members more than any other fourm?Sometimes People are too sensitive if you cant have a sense of humor you'll end up a very stressed out and bitter person to be around.
