I am installing a hybrid turbo and Haltech on my 10th anniversary T2, and I need a BOV that will handle up to 18 pounds of boost. Does anyone have any recommendations? Also, what BOV is everyone else running and where did you order it from?

I am running the stock one open vented right now. i will probably move to a turboxs.

I had a chance to take a look at some Tial products this past weekend including a blowoff valve and dam that stuff is nice. Really high quality parts.

 

I am leaning towards Tial, but I would still like more input.

18ps on the stock CHRA?&nbsp Uh, hope you have the money for a turbo rebuild soon...

a friend of mine is just giving me the stock one off of his 97 talon,,the problem with them is they bleed boost past 14 psi,,but i plan not to go past 12

 

I have a HKS SSBOV and I bought it at rx7store.com

 

I have a greddy Type S BOV from the RX7Store this is the cheapest one & is tunable...

what psi are you running through your Greddy Type S BOV?

 

Has anyone run a Blitz on there car? I am thinking of buying one just intrested what you think of them?

 

i have a blitz bov
it's not the newer style though
mine is the super sound bov or whatever it's call

it's ..hmm (what should i say?)...you know...it works...and it makes the puusshhhhhhh sounds...it's pretty cool...
my friend got it for me from japan, it was used and came with the piping for FC already, cost $80
it's worth it for my own entertainment.

if u r running 18 psi, then u might want to get a brand new one, caz when my friend came back from japan and got a bunch of used bov....(blitz, sard), we tested them, and some of them will leak when about 20psi, so they are in bad condition maybe, my car is running low boost, and there's no leak, so it's cool for me, or maybe it's blitz

caz sard one are pretty good, no leak till 40psi

 

do you have to test a BOV for leaks or does it make a Noise?

 

if it leaks at a pressure it will make like a normal air leaking noise...

but the noise is sooo small, so u probably need the bov in ur hand and get ur ear close to it to hear to leaking

 

im running a TiAl. Best BOV for the money.

 

Ya those Tial are very high quality pieces. Not all that loud though are they?

 

Its pretty loud. Not high pitched though. Sounds more like a bus.

 

i have the older blitz supersound. i like the way it sounds. not a high pitched whistle like some, more of just a fisssssh sound. im not sure how much boost it will hold. prolly enough for me tho.

 

turboXS type H

 

HKS Super Sequential <- I have heard these may not do too well on high boost applications.
