I'd like to hear about performance loss that apparently happens. If it's the case that there is a performance loss, then I stand corrected.

As far as I’m aware you won't lose any performance, but at the same time you will only gain from the use of one if the car's engine is modified... and most of the gain will be in engine wear.

Personally I think it just attracts the wrong type of attention (the fuzz), and isn't really needed for any sort of day to day driving. If you want to be seen... set that money aside for something visual (not that that’s my thing either).

Don't listen to all these haters. The sounds you can get are:

1. Pssssttthhhh

2. Pssthhfoofoofooofooo

3. Psrrtfoooossssssstshhhhh

4. Waassssshooooommmmff

5. Pizzzzooooo

and finally everyones favorite at the moment.

6. pooosssshhhhchooofooof ooof ooof.... ooof

I recommend installing two or three of them at once so you can get what they call BOV harmonies happening.

Oh and the best brand on the market is obviously got to be the Brotec. Suzuki wouldnt have chose them as their factory BOV supplier if they werent awesome.

if u could pick any BOV wat would u guys get?

for a 34 gtt

No argument - HKS Racing Type II Blow Off Valve.

THE sexiest bov on the market, and able to be plumbed back into the intake to get the cops off your back!

Just make sure you're running at least 14psi to activate it! :P

put a horse in ur car and poke it with a sharp stick wen u change gears

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Gotto love it!!

And thanks to Sewid, who got the list of sounds before I got to read the thread.

Wonderful!!

By the way, guys, if you are having trouble choosing a BOV, then here is a tip for something to fill the gap while you are making up your mind or saving up your pennies:

1. Take MP3 recorder/player;

2. Take trumpet mouthpiece (as in the musical instrument);

3. Attach to empty toilet roll or empty GladWrap tube (depending on desired note);

4. Eat beans;

5. Lots of beans;

6. Stick trumpet mouthpiece and GladWrap tube assembly up your backside;

7. Record results & play on super doof-doof system in your motor.

Easy - peasy!

Cheers! :P

Ive got 7 Brotec BOV's. If it was for Jimmy's mates cousin at Brotec i dont know what i would do! OMG Brotec are the best! :P

SK has explained this a few times i have seen, the does and donts of aftemarket BOV, if you going to do it, just buy a plumbed back so your car wont stall everytime you take you foot off the accelerator. OK the car is turned for plumb back system. Eg stock.

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
