    I'm not sure, they're getting harder to find. They are a total pain to install. If it's turned off in the tune there's no reason to install one, unless you're going over 28 psi of boost. At that point the exhaust pressure will force the valve open even if shut off.

    no damage. Just costs power as it dilutes the cylinder with exhaust, which doesn't have any oxygen to burn; you'll make less power. Only an issue at bigger power levels above 28 psi or so.
