so what do you guys think of the probe bov

does it function properly? If so whats the point of this thread?

Re: so what do you guys think of the probe bov
 

i just dont hear of people using these just wondering if they work good. basically every1 uses dsm's for junkyard build ups. and i was wondering will it function properly for my goals.

Re: so what do you guys think of the probe bov
 

its a bov... its a simple mechanical device. Just try it. If it functions right then thats GREAT if not your out $5...

Re: so what do you guys think of the probe bov
 

The Probe came with a bypass valve. Good luck.

Re: so what do you guys think of the probe bov
 

---- it, run it. I ran a bypass valve off a saab. Worked just fine.

Re: so what do you guys think of the probe bov
 

i have a 90 probe gt and the stock BPV leaks really bad at idle and leaks at high boost but if it works then sweet

Re: so what do you guys think of the probe bov
 

mine worked great, up to about 13 lbs. After that it started to blow by the valve

Re: so what do you guys think of the probe bov
 

If its a plastic Bosch valve. It should be good to about 15 psi.

Re: so what do you guys think of the probe bov
 

I ran one, worked perfect for 17psi

damn you guys are getting lucky i had two stock probe bpvs that were junk

Re: so what do you guys think of the probe bov
 

thanks guys....also do you know if the flange on it is the same as any others. i bought it with the pipe it ataches to but its like 1 3/4 inch around, i was just wondering so i could get a adapter to just weld onto the chargepipes

Re: so what do you guys think of the probe bov
 

They leak bad as ----, some guys are getting lucky obviously. Just use a hose clamp to put it on.

Re: so what do you guys think of the probe bov
 

Some bypass valves are supposed to be cracked open at idle. IE dsm 1g valves, and some of the bosch valves.

Re: so what do you guys think of the probe bov
 

huh ??? it has a 2 bolt flange on it that conects it to a hard pipe. the hard pipe is dinky like 1 3/4 inch i want a bigger one so its not so restrictive. the question was is it the same as the 2 bolt greddy flange, dsm 2 bolt flange, ect... so i can bolt it up to somthin bigger

Re: so what do you guys think of the probe bov
 

Oh i was looking at another thread and replying to this one at the same time lol ignore that. The flange is one off, its not the same as any other bov/bpv. You'd be better off just buying a 1g DSM BOV and using it.

Re: so what do you guys think of the probe bov
 

heat the charge pipe up amd smack it with a hammer so you have a flat spot
put jb weld on that spot and the grind it flat
dril your 2 hole and then nut and bolt it on with a good gasket

Re: so what do you guys think of the probe bov
 

hmmmmm i might try that. thanx
