Which BOV to buy?

[GSRSOL]

Out of these 3 - pick one and explain why you would go for it over the others

GREDDY Type R

HKS SSQV ver. 2

HKS SSQV ver. 1


At this stage im leaning towards the greddy

 

[CLuTZ]

I'd go for the Ver 1 SSQV, but make sure its the one that you can adjust.

Greddy Type R
Because it doesn't sound like a stupid whistle.
It's not ricey
It can handle a LOT of boost



you are planning on plumbing it back arent you?

lol are you serious?

Why not?

Cheap,
Adjustable,
Functional,
Most irrigation valves will hold 150 psi or more.

But no good I guess if you want to brag to your mates about it and it doesn't come with a sticker to put on the side of your car.

This is not a new idea, although the electronic control of it is. I have seen a few drag cars use them but using pressure switches to activate them.

The best thing I like about it is that you could wire up a "valet" switch which would hold the valve open and not let you produce any boost and make the car a pig to drive. Like to see the guys at the local tyre shop try have some fun it it then

another different opinion to add to the pile:

Autospeed call BOV's useless and not neccessary
