blow off valve??? Reply #16 – July 06, 2006, 08:50:45 PM I have the HKS SSQV. I was under the impression that it wouldnt cause the issues it does, so i spent the 220 on it, but the issues are less severe with it. The REAL reason i went that route is because its one of those most obnoxious ones you can buy Quote Selected

blow off valve??? Reply #21 – July 06, 2006, 10:25:18 PM Gee, it's not like I didn't mention all that. :pIf you want to deal with the issues a BOV causes with a metered system, then by all means..go for it.I had no issues (other than not sounding "cool" ) using a BPV on the metered systems.On the current SD system in the TBird....by all means ...sure as hell I'm gonna use a BOV......

blow off valve??? Reply #22 – March 29, 2007, 10:32:40 PM What is the benefit to a BOV rather than a BPV? Quote Selected
blow off valve??? Reply #23 – March 29, 2007, 10:47:35 PM BOV's can be less complicated in their installation due to the fact that they just vent to atmosphere.On a system that is metering air before the BOV, such as a MAF application, when the BOV vents, it vents metered air, thus causing a momentary rich condition, which may or may not pose problems.On a SD system, the air that is vented is not metered previously, and thus causes no issues.A BPV recirulates the metered air back into the "system" after the meter, but before the turbo. They are also usually quieter. Quote Selected
