Blow off valve for low boost

[Slo2gen]

Before anybody reads this I have searched some and could not find an answer, but I am wanting to know what the best bov would be for low boost like 5 to 8 lbs. Please let me know. Also where is the best place to buy an sfmu?

Tial BOV's are good, Greddy, HKS, 1G.... doesn't matter, they'll all work just fine.
sfmu is what....? Standalone Fuel Management Unit?

 

[Slo2gen]

Yes Stand alone. Also a FMU. I am not sure if I have the money to get a sfmu.

 

[ddavisaf]

Most people run a logger with a S-AFC2

thanks.

Why not save yourself some money and go with a 1G BOV?

ok i don't know where to start so i'll just start.
a sfmu is a replacement rising rate fpr. it is a easy fix for n/t to turbo fuel system. unlike the afpr you can ghnge the ratio at witch it rises ie: 12:1 10:1 6:1 ect...

no most people turboing a 2gn/t do not just use a logger and a safc.

and if you want a real loud bov under low boost the rfl sounds loud at 8psi.

I really appreciate you getting things straight. I am new to this n/a to FI thing but the only way to learn is to ask questions/research, right? Do you recomend the 12:1 vortech sfmu? I called Hahn and talked with Brad and told him that I didn't want the 3kgt bov or the cartech, from what I hear from most people this is what they don't like the most so I figured that I would just not pay for them and buy the good ones from the get go. What do you think?


P.S. Sorry for being so ignorant on the sfmu thing. I was not having a good day at all!

your fmu or sfmu all depends on what kind of boost you go for and what injectors you run. if you keep the boost under 10psi (intercooled) with stock injectors a 12:1 fmu will work fine. if you go to bigger injectors and or more boost you will need a sfmu. get it?

Because it's all about how loud it is, yo.

Are you kidding me? A Tial for 8 PSI?
