Bov???

[ritzard]

anyone have an idea on wich bov will work well on our cars.

m looking for a nice loud blow off not extream just verry noticable i also need a bov that can adapt cause in future ill be pushing the boost or going 2 a t3/t4 i dont wana have to buy another one.

any sudjustions anyone?

the biggest reason i want a bov is beacuse hearing the turbo backspin/butterfly sound drives me crazy cause i know its slowly damaging the turbo.

That noise you hear.....kinda like a fluttering sound is actually wastegate flutter. Wastegate is rapidly opening/closing as you get of the boost. However, having a BOV does make the turbo last longer.

There's plenty of good BOV's you can use. Try searching around Ebay to get an idea what's out there. I'm using a 1G DSM bypass valve that's vented to atmosphere.

Only difference in BOV vs. Bypass is the bypass is designed to recurculate vented pressure back into the turbo intake.

ya i want the sound i know wen you have a maf u need to recurculate the air back into the charge system but im almost 100% sure mine is map sensor not maf so its safe to blow it off i have been looking on e-bay but the ones i see are for 13+psi my car dont run that so i need one lower.

7-15 psi would do me fine.

you know of any in that range?

This one looks good:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=33742&item=7928121153&rd=1

They have ass loads of 1G DSM bov's for cheap. They are very reliable but probably don't make the sound you're looking for.

I was too lazy to go through all 9 pages of hits from searching "blow off valve"

hmm looks good but why so cheap it cant be in working order for such a low price and no reserve

maby im wrong but i have never baught off ebay b4

and i dont have a paypal account and im not giveing my credit card over the net so id have no way of buying it.

There are several days left in the auction....it will sell for alot more.

If you don't want to use ebay, find a performance shop and buy a new BOV. Will be more expensive but it will also be brand new. A performance shop should be able to help you decide what a good BOV would be for the boost you want to run.

i got the TurboXs RFL, and im very happy with it. but it probaly wont work as well for you unless you raise you boost, i had to cut a few coils off the spring to get it to open, because its rated for 25psi and im only running 10.
