Who gives a **** if it works, if it ain't loud, it sucks!

I have The Fast & The Furious on DVD if you want to hear some loud BOVs.

Does it work? If so, then who cares if it's quiet? As long as it works. People ask me why I didn't spend $250 on a HKS Super Sequential. because my $100 TurboXS bov works just fine!

i am no expert but i think the quieter the BOV, the more effeciently and quickly it releases the charged air and the better it works over a sneezy wheezy chirpy rattly BOV.

I got all this money that I put in to my car and half of the fun is listening to a turbo spool and a bov Im all about power but that is the only other thing that I want. does n e one think that the type s will fit I think that it might if I ttake a dremel to my flanges bolt pattern

My Max rev BOV works great. But if you want to switch( i see no reason not too) you can use a vortech/GReddy/Blitz bov. they all share the same flange. Why did you mount it on the Intercooler?

My Max Rev Bov Sounds super cool at the mo... What u need to do is turn up the boost... I've gone up to about 8psi now and it sounds much much louder...

Hey it was free so I'm not complaining...

you guys will slowly start to see many people with bov on the endtanks of the ic it is more efficient there. If you got it real close to your intake manifold like everybody does then think all that air that your bov lets off is cold and dense air. You want to get rid of the warm air before it goes through the intercooler or at the intercooler I hope this made sense... ohh yeah if you put a greddy right there on your ic in your bumper you will be blasting peoples ears. hahaha

Does it matter whether its cold air or hot air? Either way the charged air still gets discharged and the turbo will have to spool up to provide that charged air again..
