BOV selection?

The HKS Sequential is a fluttering sound (older model) you probably wont be able to find one brand new so pointless here...

The HKS Super sequential is sharp sounding if you know what i mean... (like an abrupt "chiiiiiiiiink" I had one and it broke in 2 months and it took them 6 months to give me my money back. I'm sure it was a one off faulty item but I liked to change BOVs often so wasn't interested in a replacement I had my fun with it :p

My favourite blow off valve was the ARC one I had if I remember it's about $700 (this was a year or 2 ago) worked well and the quality was beautiful would get one for my next turbo car. This would be my personal recommendation.

turbosmart is not a brand I even looked at or thought about never used their stuff but I've heard "things"

If you go for a reputable brand you should be right just choose what sound you prefer...

but PLEASE don't turn your car into a mini-bus, you know the sound I'm talking about...

I can supply BOVs so if you're interested don't be afraid to PM for more details :)

I'll try get more info and choices for you in the morning.

Depending on your budget and application some of the BOV's from the GFB range are descent. A friend of mine is using one on his Astra Turbo and he hasn't had any trouble with that.

I looked at their site once. They've got good flow properties and for the price you pay they're good bang for your buck.

I'd still reccomend something like HKS, or something else like that just because they're popular and they're proven.

Hope this helps.

the greddy type-S is a nice one, sounds very similar to the HKS super sequential.

i use a GFB stealth FX, which can run as plumb-back, atmo or any combination between...quality bit of gear

I have this BOV sound file and its the perfect sound i want, Koncept if you agree i can send the file through to your email and you can help me find out what it is. Anyone wants the file give me your email.

Hey there

I've got GFB red one that goes vroooom and a sharp PSHHH...

Asking $150 only. Good condition, PM if your interested.

Depends on what kind of sound u want as well

HKS is good but expensive..!

fcuken word!!
when u say good BOV, you mean purely sounds? or quality? every BOV is different depending on application. EG when i had my S15, i had a Trust Type S, which sounded totally different to a mates Type S on his Rex...
In terms of quality.. get a Sard, Tial or Turbosmart

i reccomend HKS SSQ BOV .. the best sounding BOV IMO

BOV's should not be audible if you install and comply with legal requirements.

Plumb it back !

even if u plumb back most bov's they will still be audible..

but yeah i am running a GFB plumback.. solid and simple design.. reliable.. would recommend it seeming though i got it for 180 new

this is a shit topic anyway.. it has no reference application etc etc
