HKS SSQV BOV question.......
I know this is a non-honda question but it is in the Fi forum so please help me! I would like to upgrade the sr20det blow off valve to a HKS SSQV BOV but I noticed my friends talon has a stock blow off valve. But it has a hose coming off of the end and re routing it into the intake. sometimes he takes this hose off to get a louder sound but when the BOV is activated the engine boggs and runs really rich for a second because that accounted air is not going back into the intake. Will I have any problem like this on the SR20 and if so how do I get around that???
PS: I plan to also have a Apexi Power FC on tap will this allow me to fix the problem and if so how would I do that?

Re: HKS SSQV BOV question....... (gsr camel)
If your engine is using an air-flow sensor (like most standard SR20DETs do), then you will have to re-route it to the intake. Another way which might work is if you adjust the blowoff valve to be really tight and hard, but then this may not be such a good idea for the engine. the only other way you can have the blowoff valve opened up and screaming into the open air is if you have some sort of aftermarket ECU. I think it should be okay if you're going to be playing win an A'PEXi Power FC.
Most of my friends who use SR20DETs have their blowoff's going back into the intake piping. Only a few of them are having them out in the open, and those people are using aftermarket ECUs. (none using the PowerFC though, sorry!)
