Blow Off Valves

[RED_GST]

IM LOOKING FOR A BLOWOFF VALVE THAT VENTS TO THE INTAKE, ANY SUGGESTION AS TO WHO MAKES A GOOD ONE

OR SHOULD I JUST LOOK AROUND FOR A 1G AND USE THAT INSTEAD, MONEY IS THAT BIG OF AN ISSUE THAT I CANT SPEND AN EXTRA 100 BUCKS AN AFTERMARKET PART.

ALSO, WHAT IS BETTER, VENTING TO THE ATMOSPHERE OR BACK INTO THE INTAKE, WILL MY AIR/FUEL GET SCREWED UP IF I VENT TO THE ATMOSPHERE.

THANKS

Get the 1g BOV, vent to the intake, and be happy. Then, take the money you just saved, and buy a keyboard with a functional caps lock key. ;-)

Greddy Type-S for an aftermarket one!!!

logic,

Couldn't have said it better myself. When I read a post and someone is using all CAPS, I imagine some really hyper kid talking fast and slobbering a lot. Or that 'special' kid from Crankyankers, who always just repeats stuff and yells into the phone. But yeah, 1g BOV, Greddy's are known to leak or break, diaphragm is too flimsy.

IM AT WORK, AND CAPS LOOK BETTER ON DRAWINGS, SO THATS WHAT I ALWAYS USE

CAN YOU GET A 1G FROM A DEALERSHIP OR AUTOPARTS STORE OR SOMETHING

Try checking the junkyard for one or check out EBAY. I'm pretty sure the dealer can get it for you but it will probably cost you an arm and a leg!!!

Well I went with the Turbo XS H 34 because it routes back to the intake. I didn't want to vent to the atmosphere because when you do your car will run rich. Essentially, that means that your ECU (your car's computer) has already read the air that will be vented into the atmosphere and therefore has matched it with the necessary fuel. If that air disappears into the atmosphere, you will have too much fuel and not enough air. This can cause stalling. I just decided it wasn't worth the chance of stalling just to have a BOV that makes a really loud noise. But, to each their own I suppose.

Hope this helps.
