Quick BOV Question

Nick222 · #1 03-11-2006, 01:12 PM

i just got a '92 Stealth Twin Turbo. i wanted to know what is the loudest recirculating blow-off valve i can get. after doing the free boost mod i can easily tell that the stock bov is junk.

TurboXS RFL BOV is freakin loud. Unfortunately, ther have also been many people bitching about how they suck. So...yeah.

the RFL doesn't recirculate. If you want loud though, you will have to go with an open bov not a closed. The Greddy type-S is a good closed, and so is a 1st gen DSM bov. I personally have the HKS SSQV bov, and while its not the loudest, it is definitely the coolest sounding. And the best part about the HKS SSQV is that you can by a recirculation kit, so you can choose whether you want to run it open or closed.

Why the loudest?? So everyone can hear you? Seriously go with the one that works the best and fits your budget the best.

doesnt running an open-loop bov cause idle problems?

^I don't think it causes idle problems, but a few people have had problems with their cars running rich between each shift with an open looped BOV

Which in turn can cause stalling issues.

yup, a lot of people have had these issues, but i've also known some who run an open bov who haven't had a problem with it.

i read on 3sxperformance the Apexi S-AFC can help with the stalling problem but i dont have 350 to buy one. What about the bovs that bypass and blow-off like the turbosmart bovs?

O.O I don't like where this is going...

xXxRocker5150 · #14 03-13-2006, 03:27 PM

straight to the prison shower baby!!!

To get back on topic though, I think turboXS makes a decently loud recirculating BOV though
