What Blow Off Valve Fits

[nightstocker99]

OK so I have been looking on the site for a while now trying to find out what blow off valve fits. I know the regulars like GReddy type R/S and RS fits HKS SSQ, Apex'i Twin-Chamber BOV, Blitz Dual-Drive BOV, you know the run of the mill BOV I just want to know if anyone else know other BOV that are not common in the DSM world but will work!

Any BOV will fit if you get the flange for it. I don't think I have seen anyone use the Turbonetics Godzilla BOV.

To answer your question, just about any BOV will fit if you have the right adapter/piping combo. I'd stick with what's been proven to work well, like a crushed 1G BOV or HKS SSQV. Recirculation kits are available for the HKS as well.

Vortech makes a BOV the Maxflow Racing Bypass/Blowoff Valve.

"These units will retrofit to standard HKS/Greddy style mounting pads and out performs anything its size." Says Vortech

Like the GReddy type-s flange.

I want to get this BOV because the guy from 5150 auto sports says when it vents it sounds like someone breaking glass. I have not seen anyone with the BOV. So I called Dezod Motor Sports and the "Tech Guy" said it will fits and work. So I was just wondering if anyone has seen this BOV used in the DSM world.

So the purpose of the upgraded bov is the venting sound? Are you aware that you're not setup to vent anyway?

There is also this one that was recently brought out in another thread:

http://forgemotorsport.com/content.asp?inc=product&catalog=0804&cat=0804

There are two versions, a blow off and a recirculating. They look like they are of good quality, moderately priced ($170) and have a built-in flange. Check it out.

Oh no it will be recirculating and it will hold better boost then my stock BOV thats why I want it. I just want something that just isn't seen everyday on this site

Glad to hear that. I suggest going with something that has been proven to work by your peers, the sound will get old in a couple of days anyway, I'm still running my original 1G BOV.

I can go the road that is traveled the most, but I want to take the trail less taken. If worst come to worst I can just see the thing on ebay and just get a GReddy Type-S BOV, because like Vortech said it is the same flange.

If your BOV can't hold the boost can it hurt your engine or turbo?

i had the greddy type s. hated it. now i have the greddy type r on my talon. i love it. another bov i used on my corrado race car, was the tial 50mm. i like that bov the best out of any. works great

 

[spocks90talon]

the stock 1g bov is great if your still running stock boost, ive never had any issues with it, i crushed one of my old ones a while back and i think just keeping the factory bov is better, crushed bov suck, if you plan on running more than 18 psi just get a greddy or hks or whatever theve been proven time and time again to work. i used a turbo smart dual horn bov once, sounded bad ass was loud as hell but you couldnt recirulate with it so i sold it to one of my honda buddys. if you get a new bov make sure you can recirulate with it unless your mas system if set up for dumping. like the greddy type s, sounds cool even when you recirulating it
