Tial BOV

It's one of the best on the market.

[Two-Fortee]

Do you like a ...

VROOOMMMMMM PPSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHH

or a

VROOOOMMMMMMMM EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESHHHHHH

?

[coreansurfer]

if you're going to have stock sr, keep the stock bov, more low key.

[s13fOr_me]

HKS = awesom!

[auto alchemist]

HKS = awesom!

yeah thats what im going with, ive heard with the SSQV people dont have problems with stalling when running the bov open atmosphere instead of recirc

[SeVa-S13]

The SSQV is about the gayest-sounding BOV you can buy right now, but it's still a quality part. Stock recirc valve is fine for mostly stock applications and saves money/attention.

[keith0486]

i had an arc one never had a problem with it what so ever. i wouldn't get another one i would go with tial all the way.

[govtworkhorse]

I ran the HKS SSQV for a few days on my RB20 and I must say, I hated it. It was a very obnoxious noise.

EDIT: Damn! The last two posters snuck in on me...you guys are quick tonight.

HKS ssqv = pull type.

pull type ftw!

[Didderson]

HKS ssqv = pull type.

pull type ftw!

I agree. Sound doesn't matter when you look at function/performance.

I vote HKS.

PS. OP is a racist.

I like my TurboXS RFL....

[I ask good questions]

I like my rfl also... ITS LOUD!!! people are like wtf was that. I love the priceless expressions on some peoples faces!

[idahotuner]

I like my TurboXS RFL....

i havea turboxs bov for sale right now. do 50 dollars shipped

[Jookmasta]

greddy type s is what i use............2.5 years and it's still going strong. if i had to choose another, SARD or Tial would be up next..............

[david200095367]

im using the turbo xs type h made to recirculate. but mines not. no idle issues or stalling either.

[sr20power]

I'm using the Sard R2D2...don't have any experience with any other BOV. But then again, i've only been boosting for 2 months and love the way it sounds....

[RPS13 DRIFTER]

the HKS SSQ gets my vote

[seanman]

yeah i bought an HKS ssqv. although im still working on the engine my friend had an ssq and it was sweeeeeeet sounding so, hks FTW

[karmakaze]

i run a HKS SSQV and a TurboXS RFL. talk about sounding mean!

[otterman]

Do you like a ...

VROOOMMMMMM PPSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHH

or a

VROOOOMMMMMMMM EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESHHHHHH

?

[BuLLeTdrift]

i run a HKS SSQV and a TurboXS RFL. talk about sounding mean!

at the same time?

those where to 2 BOV's that i had to decide on. Found ssqv for hella cheap so i got it. Still want the RFL one. which do you like better?

Also to the OP, theres a long a$$ thread about BOVs on here.

[GoTRicEo0]

You don't need a bov!! All the top D1 Drifters do it!!!!! ITS JDM TYTE

The HKS SSQV is the only bov I tried (unless u count ebay lol) I 2nd TiAL if I had to get another.

[Project240]

I run a DSM BOV. It's cheap, functional, and it doesn't scare small children because isn't ridiculously stupid loud like most of the above-mentioned parts.

A car that's designed to perform instead of being obnoxious and attracting as much attention as possible?!!! HOLY $@#%@^!!!, I never thought of THAT before!!!

[SeVa-S13]

A convertible now, eh?Email a negro sum pix0rz.

[Project240]

A non-running one at the moment, but yes indeedy. I'll do so =D

[jhirashiki]

sr20s come with a stock blow off valve? i know they have stock wastegates, but blow offs also? if mine comes with one, then i'll just keep that for the short term. also what do you guys mean by "push type" what other types are there?

im still learning guys... but i want a UHHH-RUHHHH; PSHH PSHHH PSHHHH! lol...

[Mouse6933]

i was using a greddy type rs, never had any issues or major complaints once, i took the larger spring out.... now im going to be using the synapse bov... which is a pull type also..

[Project240]

SR has a bypass valve stock, which is the same as a blow-off valve except it recirculates the air back into the intake tract. This is to avoid the bogging and stalling that you'll sometimes get with a BOV that vents to atmosphere. Meaning, it's the better choice if you're mainly concerned about having your car run and perform well.

But, if you're really concerned about sounding super cool - and it sounds like you are - then go find an HKS SSQV.

[kamikazestorm420]

the stock bov is connected to the stock smic.

i personally run a blitz but im still on stock boost.

if you just want the sound, compressor surge FTW!
