Over-Riding The Blow Off Valve On A L67
On the ALCAN, 98% of the time, Premo is not available; only 87 , so I want to manually leave the blow-off valve fully open for the trip to WCBF. I don't want to damage anything, just a temp setup that I can use on the way down theer and back.
Any suggestions would be great.

We don't have a blow-off. We have an internall bypass. It doesn't vent unused boost to the outside, but rather back into the LIM before compression.
Your performance and fuel mileage will suffer greatly if you do this on the drive. Can't get higher octane? Don't allow the boost to go over about 5 psi.
