another bov tread
ok ok guys...before u flame me, i just want to explain first why im starting this tread again. i have been planning to get a bov for quite sometime now, but since everybody have different opinions i cant decide if i shud install one. here is the bov i am planning to get from mjmautohaus.com it says here that...
Forge Motorsport's Blow Off Valve "Splitter" is a truly remarkable valve that gives a combination of a blow off and recirculation valve operation all at the same time. These valves have been specifically designed for the many VAG 1.8T applications. This means you get all the noise of the blow off valve whilst retaining the compatibility with the recirculation requirements of the VAG engine management system. As a bonus, these valves give you the ability to convert them to recirculation only mode for those times when stealth running is required. These valves use a copper and zinc alloy piston which utilizes new sealing technology along with a variable spring pre-load incorporating a ratchet type top adjuster that will allow for the positive and precise adjustment to match the valve to your engine. This is achieved by using a unique single, conical, progressive rate spring that can allow for the retention of boost pressure over a wide adjustment range. This unique spring design also allows for unrestricted piston travel and flow volume regardless of the amount of pre-load adjustment added to the spring. Other manufactured valves using cylindrical springs with adjustable pre-load often experience restricted piston travel and a reduction in flow volume. NOTE: Requires installing the opposite way to the original Bosch valve. In other words, the side pipe is fitted into the turbo intake hose and the base pipe connects to the hose that runs to the boost side of the turbo. |

RE: another bov tread

ORIGINAL: sean1.8t with the B6, you won't have any problems running any BOV your heart desires. or any DV. it will run fine regardless.. the B6's are special:) |
RE: another bov tread
If you're dead set on a BOV, the TurboXS RFL is very loud, and so are the HKS SSQV (super sequentials).

RE: another bov tread
im confused i want a bov that is loud and is also safe

ORIGINAL: sean1.8t with the B6, you won't have any problems running any BOV your heart desires. or any DV. it will run fine regardless.. the B6's are special:) No you cant run ANY bov, just a certian style and even some of those work better than others. The key point is that its closed at idle andreleases a proper amount for the turbo used(tial 50mm on a ko3/4, thats a no go) |
