kr1sh Posted October 2, 2003 Share Posted October 2, 2003 hello all, now i admit i am new to cars and turbos and stuff and probably dont know wat im on about, but i havea hks ssbov and everywhere i go people seem to be bad mouthing it becuase it apparently makes ur car stall and shit like that. now i went through those problems as well, but i later found that wen having a hks ssbov u are also required to have a hks idle stabaliser, and wen i got that in, everything worked like a charm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sewid Posted October 2, 2003 Share Posted October 2, 2003 The HKS Idle Stabliser changes the signal going to the ECU from the AFM. It's a bandaid soloution at best. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/26090-hks-ssbov/#findComment-552975 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOOSTMEISTER Posted October 2, 2003 Share Posted October 2, 2003 When I bought mine I had no issues then I spoke to the guys at BD4's (HKS Agent) and they said that it was rare that the Idle stabiliser was necessary .....

d0p3y Posted October 2, 2003 Share Posted October 2, 2003 Flutter is not from the BOV it is from the air flowing back through the turbo. It's not good for the turbo at all. Obviously by over-tightening the BOV you're gonna end up with the air going thru the turbo as it can't vent, hence the flutter.

BOOSTMEISTER Posted October 2, 2003 Share Posted October 2, 2003 One of the things about Jap BOV's is that unlike ones from Oz they aren't all simply products of the metal laythe....A lot of Jap ones are actually cast items, this is why they are far more expensive. From memory the HKS Sequencial BOV is not adjustable, I had one a long time ago on my starlet. The Super Sequencial is though.....then of course there is the Super Racing BOV from HKS, now that's expensive Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/26090-hks-ssbov/#findComment-553810 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOOSTMEISTER Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 As I said I don't think you can adjust the older one. If yours has adjustment then what it does is put more pre-load on the actualto spring insied the bov and makes it hard to force open, you do this if you run higher boost (set it soft for low boost cars and hard for cars with much higher boost) The basic rule of thumb is set it hard so you hear the flutter then back it off till you can't here it any more ..... that should be the right setting.

AeroGrace Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 the nut on the SSQV only adjusts the tension of the bigger(2nd) valve. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/26090-hks-ssbov/#findComment-554550 Share on other sites More sharing options...

AeroGrace Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 because the SSQV as 2 valves, the smaller purple pointy thingy and the bigger valve with the HKS wordings...the screw only adjusts the tightness of the big valve. i've yet to solve the damn fluttering problem because of this...no matter how loose i turn it.....it only affects the bigger valve...
