new hks bov??

[7"exhaust_tip]

Has anyone heard anything about the new hks bovs?
As in, are they good or not?
Supposedly, they are now good for both high and low boost applications, since HKS redisigned them. Opinions?

I have no experience with that blow off valve, but hks's products are usually top notch. I would buy one if I were planing to vent to the atmosphere(which is not recomended unless your system is setup to).

You can buy this BOV and Recirc it aswell just like the old style. It uses a recirc fitting that allows you to recirculate this BOV just like the old one.

Like Spln Hrd said Hks makes very good products.
But you will still be able to recirculate it if you want. You just have to buy the recirculation kit.

It's probably just a redesign of the housing to be different from the SSQV knockoffs, which DO PERFORM like the real one.

For very informative info on HKS SSQV real and knockoff:

From what you can see in the picture it looks like its the same SSQV with a new external cover. They don't seem to mention anything new on the HKS website about changes, so I'm thinking the vendor is just saying this to get people to buy the new version. I'm thinking the same, they just revised the outside because of all the knock offs.

I know this isn't the place for it but I'd watch that vendor, they outright lie in their auctions (I think this should be okay to say as its not a review, its just stating a fact). There's obviously more to go with that but like I said, this isn't the place for that sort of thing.
