question on the RFL subject..
if i put more washers in, will it be louder

gimme some info guys

 

i see that people are looking at my post please fill me in. the bov is lous as hell now but i was wondering what the washers are for that come with the kit..?

 

Not sure of what your asking but where would you put the washers? I've never heard of it making it louder by putting more washers...

 

I hope you know that XS RFL BOVstands for XS "REAL FUCKEN LOUD" Blow Off Valve. Sorry I'm not much help...

 

The washers need to be added if you run more boost. If it's working how it is and not leaking, you probably don't need to add any more washers. If you do, it won't "blow-off".

my friend has a 11 second integra its a CRV-tec b20 with gsr head and a stage 6 revhard kit.

he has a RFL but he has all of his washers in it and its louder than mine

im running 8 psi and hes running 18 psi

im thinking more boost louder blow off

i like it loud, but i was wondering if it could be made louder thats all..

fill me in with your opniions and knowledge

thanks

 

The more psi you are pushing, the louder the bov will be, that is the basic, if you want it to be super loud, turn up your boost to 659506606psi. If not, there isn't really much you can do.

 

where is the placement of your BOV? Is it close to your intake manifold or is closer down to the intercooler/turbo?

The further away from the IM the louder it will also be.

 

i bought an imitation turbo xs rfl on ebay and it came lubed up on the inside where the release piston slides up and down with some thick sticky grease that would let it move freely and my BOV would flutter when the car reached normal operating temperature. I cleaned the thick grease off the piston and BOV cylinder and lubed it with chain lube spray, kinda like wd40 only a lil thicker. Now no fluttering check if yours has that thick grease, it'll make it harder on the BOV to open and will make it flutter or quieter. Or if you want it realy loud, install a small dc powered megaphone infront of the BOV and have it wired to the ignition so it amplifies the BOV sound.
