HKS SSQV opening but not making any kind of sound???
 

The SSQV vacuum hose is routed to the fuel pressure regulator vacuum source. All the charge pipes are connected to the intercooler... What could be wrong? I did open the blow off valve to install it on the charge pipe, with the C-clip, but I put everything back the way it was. What could be the problem here?

real hks or knock off?? boost levels the same

Re: HKS SSQV opening but not making any kind of sound???
 

do u have a boost gauge, how many pounds are you running?

Re: HKS SSQV opening but not making any kind of sound???
 

Are you just trying to rev it, or driving it down the street.

Re: HKS SSQV opening but not making any kind of sound???
 

Hello everyone, it is the real HKS SSQV not the knock off... Yes I am just trying to rev it, and I am not driving it down the street.. I do not have a boost gauge, and I am boosting 8 PSI (the .6 bar) spring. I just installed the turbo kit, and I am just trying to start the car and see how it blows off, etc. I am not going to drive it until I get the car tuned. I also do not have a downpipe, nor do I have a dump tube (i dont have these things yet)

Re: HKS SSQV opening but not making any kind of sound???
 

uhh yea your probably not gonna hear it because your not making enough boost when you just rev it, u create boost under load (while driving) my car is the same. drive it and you'll hear it. also u should get a boost gauge might have a boost leak

Re: HKS SSQV opening but not making any kind of sound???
 

yeah but still, i should hear something. i never heard of a bov not blowing off while revving. i dont understand it. there has to be something wrong

Re: HKS SSQV opening but not making any kind of sound???
 

ummm no bov wont blow off unless it has a load on it that will make it creat boost. if your tubo is large than it wount spool in neutral.

get a boost gauge and if you make boost, than you should wonder if it is blowing off.

Re: HKS SSQV opening but not making any kind of sound???
 

I did the exact same thing...wondered for 4 days why my stuff wasnt working while revving in neutral...TAKE it up the road...as long as you dont have any other issues like boost leaks, youll hear it...trust me..these guys on there made sure that i knew to take it up the road and put a load on the engine..

Re: HKS SSQV opening but not making any kind of sound???
 

yeah the car must be under load for the bov to go off and make noise. on neutral, don't expect any PSSH!!! This is real life! not the fast and the furious !! ;)

if your blow off goes off like crazy on neutral anyway, it's bad news!! IMO, it means your turbo is twice too small and will probably die on higher RPMS like most factory turbos do.

Re: HKS SSQV opening but not making any kind of sound???
 

correct this isnt f&f, with your setup you will have to build boost, your not going to build boost by reving it up, drive it down the street half throttle and you'll hear the ricer bird bov

Hey ------lips what were you going to do to me again? ;D

Re: HKS SSQV opening but not making any kind of sound???
 

another thing about the ssqv is that its a duel stage bov hence the "sequential " in the name.
@ lower boost levels from 5 to 8 psi my ssqv flutters instead of chirping.
9 to 15 psi the second stage chirps progressivly louder depending on the boost level.
16 to 25 psi the bov makes a very loud ass chirp followed by some fluttering.
some people who run lower boost levels and dont get the chirp try to loosen the bov adjustmant all the way ------- it up......ricers.

Re: HKS SSQV opening but not making any kind of sound???
 

Okay then that is what I'm going to do. I will take it just down my street and see what happens. I just remember my friends Eclipse GSX, he had the stock turbo with the RFL BOV, and he blew off real nice in neutral. But then again he had a real small turbo, and I'm using the Super 60. I also noticed that the turbo does NOT spool at all when I turn on the car. I have to rev it for the wheel to move. But I guess thats normal too. I'll let you guys know what happens
