Re:BOV question.. kinda a ricey question though.
 

i have a Greddy Type-s and its holding 1.1bar perfectly fine it has a nice whistle to it.. at very low boost 1 - 3 psi it flutters and the tension spring is as soft as it can get but its fine.. from 5psi and up its that nice whistle sound they have... and it holds the boost really well better than my old turbo xs.. i give it a thumbs up... next to test is HKS SS

if you wanna go cheap, my 88 supra turbo bov sounds like someone exhaling loudly. not real loud but not wimpy sounding. i've seen them on ebay for about $10. what really gets'em is when I pull up to the red light, and my car starts smoking real bad from the exhaust, ;D turbo seals gone, new turbo going on this week I hope.

has anybody heard of th e Bosch BOV? they are not too shabby neither. I have the GReddy typeS and it's a little too high pitch but I'm happy with it.......

Re:BOV question.. kinda a ricey question though.
 

im gonna try something kinda stupid.... but i hope it works..... I got a 2G DSM BOV.... the plastic kind (dont trip im not gonna be pushing that much boost,7PSI) for 10$ off DSM trader... well i wanted something nicer... but i was on a budget... anyways... something like a Blitz... or HKS you know the ones that have those nifty little horns... well i was at Wal-mart and i pass by where the bicycle horns were at... and i had the crazy idea.... what if i buy one of these horns and mold it onto the BOV... so its like 1 peice... with some fiberglass... i wonder what it would sound like... no im not on crack... i know it sounds crazy... what do you people think....???

Guys what do you think of this Greddy Blow off Valve. I'm getting this and a new Autometer Boost Gauge for $150 shipped. Is this a good deal? Also, I plan on using my CAI for charge piping, so I'll have to somehow weld this BOV on, is everything I need on the actual BOV?

im running the greddy type-s on my talon holding 18lbs of boost with no problems.... im gonna run the 1g bov on my integra just cause i got it laying around.

the type s gotta nice pitch too i heard it on a civic pushing 6 lbs but it didn't sound to impressive..but with 18lbs sounds waayyy better.

Re:BOV question.. kinda a ricey question though.
 

this may be me being bitchy again, but loud bov's tend not to be as efficient as quiet ones.. lots of air forced through a small hole = loud
lots of air forced through a large hole= not as loud but more efficient dumping of boost


try www.turbosmart.com.au

i have a large diaphragm bov on my car and it annoys the hell out of me, people who dont know anything about turbos think your car is fucked and it attracts the wrong type of attention to my car..
