I'm about 2 buy a BOV, what would u guys say is the loudest BOV for an FD, https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683561.gif

loudest.......... or best......... dont get the two mixed up
|
well i Want a good BOV but it has to be pretty loud, I was told by a friend that the BLITZ BOV is the loudest BOV and that's what i'm leaning towards but I want to make sure that I'm making the right choice before I buy a BOV https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683473.gif
|
yeah blitz is pretty loud
|
ive heard about 5 different bovs in person on cars with similar boost and the HKS super sequential is by far the loudest, i like the greddy type S sound but they arent as reliable as hks. Plus the hks has inserts to change sound

there's nothing wrong with the stock bov's. If your upgrading your bov because it's not loud...then I'm going to call you a RICER...
...can I get an AMEN? |

The stock bov is pretty loud when you disconnect the side that goes to the intake.

For me a BOV is there to do a job, not to see how loud she goes.
|
that's why you get one the does it job well, and sounds good(doesn't mean loud as hell)...i would never sacrifice performance for sound. yet if you can have both....go for it.

First of all, I know I said I wanted a loud BOV but That doesn't mean that I want a BOV for the sound, I just wanted 2 know what would be a good BOV that would would do sound good but at the same time not sacrafice performance.
I'm sorry if it sounded that way. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683358.gif I would never sacrafice performance for sound. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683664.gif |

I would have to say from my experience the HKS super sequntial sounds great and does not leak like some others do.
|
I heard that venting the stock BOV will solve the problem........ It's quite loud IMO......
|
|
ricer!
|
I plan on getting the M2 i/c which uses the greddy elbow (with or with out the bov flange) So, should I just get the regular elbow and use the stock bov or should I get the elbow with the flange and switch to an aftermarket bov? If I get an aftermarket bov for the elbow do I have to take the stock bov off? Sorry if that was off topic.
|
I wouldnt plumb the bov into the Greddy elbow, it will take up to much room and make it a pita to check your oil or change your oil filter. I'd just have a shop wend it to your IC pipe facing inward toward the front of the engine.
Also, I'd prob get a Tial bov. They are very good quality. I know someone that had a prob with the Apexi twin chamber leaking. JSPECRACER7 - How did you test the bov to find that it was leaking? Just hook it up to a air compressor or hand pump or something like that??? STEPHEN |

If any one needs an elbow with flange welded on, I've got a few in stock shameless plug ^ |

Well I decided to ditch the stocker to "clean up" the engine bay a little. I've plugged the holes on the rear pipe and y-pipe and will have a BOV mounted on the IC pipe between my IC and the greddy elbow. I don't give a **** what it sounds like. I want one that wont leak on me when I do 16-18psi runs. I've never heard what the performance limitations are for the stockers... there may be none, I just don't like all the rubber hoses and clamps. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif
