The only point to crushing the bov is for it to hold more boost.  uncrushed holds around 17psi and crushed hold around 20psi or more of boost
so unless your runnin over 17psi of boost your fine.  It should last you uncrushed for quite awhile.

Please search for this topic. This has been discussed to death. It pains me to even see another thread on it. :roll:
