Correct. Surge at very low boost is “harmful” but it’s so insignificant that you will probably never know. Even surge at high boost, turbos can withstand it for quite a long time. I know plenty of people who are boosting 45-50psi with no bypass valve for many thousands of miles. A lot of modern turbos have anti-surge housings. Little holes drilled in the compressor inlet. This helps it as well.
I actually have DV+ in possession now. Hopefully, I’ll install this weekend with the stronger spring. In case there are leaks.
