Default Blow off valve

Would the HKS SSQV BOV work up to 25psi? or should I go with the HKS Racing? I will need it to be efficient at low PSI levels such as 10psi. They dont give the specs for the SSQV on their website. Thanks for your help!

My HKS Racing BOV works just fine at 7psi. Sounds cool too

I don't remember if you can hear the BOV in that video, but it's still a cool video

We had some cool footage of my BOV going off, but some cool guy recorded over it on the camera.

So you have no muffler? Just the 3 inch thermal all the way through? Am I missing something here?..............you should take a video of you accelerating down a street or something so I(and others in here) can hear it....if you get really bored

How much did that run you? And, do you know who makes your muffler? I dont have the cash right now to get an entire exhaust, but I think I could afford a muffler.

I had the hks racing bov for a little while. Sounds great from inside the cabin at 6psi. But its barely noticable outside the car. I guess it requires more boost to make it jingle. Juss a nice simple woosh of air, plus it looks very sharp
