I am thinking about purchasing the HKS SSQV for the A4 I will be getting this summer. Has anyone installed one of these on their A4 and if so what is your opinion on them.

 

NO NO NO NO NOOOOOO. Search the forum you will find out why.

 

I read this post

so i started to search on hks' website and found this-

would this work then with the audi recirculation system?

 

yes... But why spend the money on it?

 

the recirculation kit is only 12 dollars and it does the same thing as a diverter valve. plus a guy i know has the SSQV that he wants to sell me for 100 bucks. and if you look at this engine cut out

it wouldn't be hard to install at all

 

Go for it. Retail on the ssq is like 200+ thats why i was like wtf? But if you can get it for cheaper and recirculate it you'll be fine. Installation is easy as hell. If you need help pm me.

 

alright dude thanks, i think i am going to go for it. i am not getting the car til mid summer for funding reasons but when i do AF will be the first to know after me of course. i am learning more and more about audi's everyday from AF. thanks again for your input

 

No prob.

 

germancarmaniac and I are experimenting with a stock First Generation DSM (Mitsubishi Eclipse, Eagle Talon, Plymouth Laser) Recirculation Valve this Sunday, I'll let you guys know how it goes. Incase you guys aren't aware, a stock 1G BOV can handle up to 30psi after you "crush" it. You can pick these things up on Ebay or DSM-Tuners for under $20, and buy the adapter plate (They're used so you can weld them onto Intercooler Piping for Hondas and such, but it just so happens the plate that I have looks like it will bolt directly up to the B6's stock hosing) for about $15 off Ebay or for free if you find the right deal.

Anyway, I'll post up pictures and let you guys know how it goes... For under $40, you get a DV that can handle up to 30psi, and that S00PER KUL PSSSSHHHHHHHH NIOSE!!!!11!!1!1!!!1!
