bov\'s

[DC-TYPER]

if i buy one, are they easy to install?
 
are they a straight swap for the standard ones?
 
anyone got any pics so i have an idea?

[Rixio]

I think theres some blocking off invloved aswell as a little more work...may be wrong though...

Are they actually needed if you keep the stock twins? Since it aleady has one is it needed. Just wondering as it\'s one less thing to buy at the moment

[Devil\'s Refugee]

Agree with Paul, intended to buy one myself but was put off as it\'s not actually needed unless you\'re desperate for the sound effects. Also been told to keep away from the HKS item as it corrodes badly over time. Apexi or Greddy/ Trust units probably the best to look at imo

Forge also do a twin bov for little cost.

My Missus Likes The Noise, I Done The Mod So I Could Here The Standard One. But Its Pants

If you\'re single (turbo) then you can use one of them - some say it\'s needed to prevent damage to the turbo.  They\'re probably right!  BOVs don\'t have to be loud - decent ones shouldn\'t be imo - the more noise they make the more resistance to airflow and less efficient they are!

Twins don\'t need one...

Im Still Twin, But This Missus Wants One.  She Likes The Rallye Style One..

I\'ve gone single, and am currently using the bypass valve used for twins!! May have to purchase something more appropriate at a later date.

ARE YOU RUNNING TWINS?
 
IF SO, HOW DID YOU CONNECT IT?

[probedb]

My stock one is still plumbed back into the intakes like stock (have HKS RS intakes) and that\'s loud enough for me!

I may be mistaken but from this thread it sounds like there is some sort of mod that can be done to the standard twin sequential turbo set up that produces the same / similar sound as buying an after market BOV?

If so how do you do this mod?

[DC-TYPER]

the pipe that goes into the back of you airbox.(the one with the bov on it)
disconnect that and block the hole left in the box.(the bov is the top pipe)
 
it does the noise but you can here itblow more as you go up the revs

[L12A GN]

yeah the stock one blows off too easy was running it disconnected from box for a while

as for fitting the aftermarket blitz one i just took the old stock bov off the hose and put the blitz one in its place

DID YOU FEED THE PIPE BACK INTO THE AIRBOX?
