MAP is newer? Wow, must've been out of this world when the 914 used it.

(I know, D-Jet is technically manifold _relative_ pressure, but I couldn't resist the joke.)

I still think I'd prefer to recirculate the BOV even with a MAP system though, it can't hurt and might actually help keep the turbo spooled a little more.
