blow off valve question

[moger21]

i was wanting to get a new blow off valve for my 04 WRX. i would like to keep the price under $300, so i was wondering if any of you guys and girls would know of any good ones for that price or under.

None of them are really gonna work any better than the stock one unless you're pretty heavily modded, so just whatever sounds good.

One thing to cosider is if it recirculates the air into the intake or not. WRX is MAF, so if the air in the piping is just blown out into the atmosphere, it will run rich for a moment. Won't really hurt anything other than maybe premature wear on the o2 sensors, but it'll cause it to hesitate when you get back on the gas.

ummmm im new to this tuning stuff what does MAF mean?

[donkeyboy]

MAF means mass air flow sensor, its a sensor on the intake which takes readings of the air being taken in. most new cars have them.

JDM offer a Blitz DD Dual Drive Blow-Off Valve (BOV) for $297.50 shipped it. It works very good on a WRX. The Sounds is very cool and different than other brands.
