Do we need to cap the P- Valve?
Just wondering if on the ZL1 do we need to cap our p-valves like on the CTS-V? I did a bigger lower pulley and am noticing my boost is maxed around 12psi.
Thanks! |

if the tune is done properly, no capping is necessary. My car runs at 14-15psi with no cap.

I asked my tuner that exact question and he said to stop worrying about something that doesn't matter if the tune is properly performed. I think that the capping of that valve was in the beginning of modding CTS-V's in 2009 and I never see any mention of it now.
