oh, i forgot to say that at the track i would be running 15+ psi if that changes anything.

 

I would go with the HKS SSQ. Recirculate if you can.

 

i have heard the hks ssqv can leak at the o ring in the mount because there is no real pressure holding it into the o ring other than the c clip, which doesnt do much. although i run a hks, im switching to tial when i get a bigger intercooler. tial is all we run at full race.

 

Since mine is out of sight anyways i run a crushed DSM 1st gen BOV.

the problem is some let air out when they AREN'T supposed to
i remember one magazine comparing BOVs and measuring somehow the compressor surge(?)

 

Anyone here ever use the Vortec bov? How does it compare to these brands? HOw does it sound?

 

i got a hks ssq, and i have had no probs, it has 2 diff sounds for low and high boost, also u can change the insert inside and get a diff sound

Taken straight from Turbo mag. Now everyone copy and paste to notepad and stop making bov threads. Sorry no TiAL info is listed. Good night!

edit: btw, I have a Greddy Type-S on my setup I love it sooo much. Makes really goood psssssssh sound.

 

great info there

Im rocking the Greddy Type R BOV. I love it. Its got a great sound to it and I don't really have one complaint about it.

 

I like my HKS SSQ, sounds like a bird getting raped by a Doberman

 

Tial markets theirs as the best because it has the least restrictive [most efficient] opeining...a 360* release of the compressed air...not channeling it through some small horn to get a big noise.

 

Anyone here ever use the Vortec bov? How does it compare to these brands? HOw does it sound?

 

Does the HKS SS recircuilate or dumb?

good to hear.
I have a Type-R that I will be installing when my car is finished.
Does it open at partthrottle ? Are you using two vacumconnectors to it, both before and after the throttlebody ?

 

TiAl 50mm

Glad to see someone using this BOV. I always thought it was a nice BOV, but never really saw many ppl with Hondas using it... just big supra and Rx7 guys. I'll be using one later on my next setup, but currently I have the RFL. BUt it doesn't leak...it holds good, and makes some very interesting sounds.

 

I have a tial bov, and here's what I can tell you about it: It's got an AWESOME sound from inside the car, but you cannot really hear it outside the car. So if you don't want people taking notice of your car everytime you drive by (to reduce chance of theft) then get it. In terms of quality of the sound, it can't be beat and it's not something you're going to get sick off. However it's volume is lacking.

 

anybody know how a Blitz DD performs and sounds i have one but iam still doing work on my car. It is still closed in a box and unopened.

 

I'm ran a 1g DSM BOV for the 3 days my car ran after the turbo install. it was pretty quiet and went "Che"

I want one thats a touch louder and goes "Pssssht"

 

Greddy Type S Great Sound and works Great~!
Greddy Type R for high boost~

 

i had the HKS on my gst and it was really loud.
