Ive always been anxious to hear the Blitz bov. Iluvmy88cabrio, do you have the old super sound or the new dual drive bov? Got any vids of how it sounds?

I've got the DD BOV. I was running 13 psi and it sounded great, now I'm only running 7, but it still sounds good. Everyone always tells me how good "my car sounds," I just tell them it's the BOV. Sorry, no vids. of it.

yeah, guy from class has an eclipse with the stock BOV, he was suprised mine didnt have one stock. anyway, i was passing by him once in town and his sounded like something broke when he shifted, not a smooth hiss or anything, more of a pop.



anyway, what placed deal the blitz and hks. i know rx7.com carries the greddy and the apex.

You don't have one!!!



You should...I thought all stock rx7s had BOVs...it's called the Charge Relief Valve..it's the little valve between the top of the turbo and the bottom of the stock TMIC...it has a vacum hose running out of it, and another larger hose running back into the rubber intake hose going into the turbo. If you disconnect the hose running back into the rubber intake inlet...and turn the BOV around to face the firewall..it's much much louder :smirk:

Yeah and then your car won't idle from the huge vacuum leak you just gave it.



Buy a boost gauge before you buy a boost controller. Especially if that is your complete mod list.

i have an autometer boost gauge. yeah, i was wondering about that contraption that is between the intercooler and the intake. i figured it might not be a BOV since all the pressure gauge lines run off it.

Man, not Autometer! Hopefully yours reads right but ive never known anyone with a Autometer boost guage that reads correctly. Usually theyre off like a couple psi. Remember, you get what you pay for! Those Autometer guages are like 60 bucks arent they?

it was already on the car when i bought it. when turned off, it read like 1 psi. dont know how accurate it is in a linear fashion. good enough until i get enough money for a dual pod mount and two new gauges.

i like your avatar, nice pic of dual exhaust fire shot. that your car?

Yes sir it is! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png Thanks, I appreciate it. The Racing Beat full exhaust tends to blow flames. Well about that Autometer guage, thats good then because we all know that anything free is badass! This post reminds me that I need to get a blow off valve too!
