"this is probably what is happening to those of you that are trying BOVs and the engines run very rich at idle and very poorly, but smooth out when driving at higher rpm....the piston is probably open at idle."

I assume he means that the bov's are open for a short enough time during PROPER operation that the car does not run rich for a significant amount of time, unlike at idle, where running rich for an extended period will throw dtc's and result in a rough idle.
