hks ssqv issue need opinions

[daarkness92]

Hey guys, quick to the point...the adjuster bolt on my hks ssqv bov broke, and im not sure what to do? Should I try to drill it out and replace it, or just leave it where it is and maybe seal off the back?

I Would See If It Can Be Repaired And If Not I Would Not Recommend Getto Ringing It. Sucks But Just Buy A Used One Or New One

Is it leaking boost? Do a boost leak test to see.

If not, it nots a problem. If I remember correctly the adjustment screw doesnt have a function on the HKS bov. Thats why the newer ones dont have the screw on them. The HKS bov doesnt need to be adjusted to perform correctly.

yeah ive read about that so im thinking i may just seal where the bolt broke and call it good then I have to do a boost leak test anyways

I would do the boost leak test first. If it doesnt leak, leave it as is.

 

[daarkness92]

ok i'll do that thanks!

If you dont mind me asking, how did you manage to break the bolt off anyway?

If I remember right the adjuster bolt on the old SSQV don't work at all. Thats why the new SSQV don't have them.

atlease put JB weld or something, just to make sure.

i bought it used and i went to try and play with the adjustment one day and the bolt just came right off..so i just put it back in and left it the way it was but now im rebuilding my car so i figured i would fix it while i can

If he boost leak tests it and it doesnt leak then why waste your time JB welding something that doesnt need it? Thats just ridiculouse, and ghetto.
