Why in the hell did you go with 2 SSQV's?? You only need one unless you are running upwards of 24psi or so. One of them will work even if you are running sequentially. I hope that there is something I'm not seeing here. Laterz.

It Mak3S It SO faS7 Yo!!

Im just kidding around. What turbo are you using? I'd agree that if you are using the stock twins its no more then a rice boy mod. If you have a nice big single then its another story.

if anyone is looking to get a the ssbov/ssqv, i have one for sale. it is the FD specific kit, which makes it a bolt on instead of requiring custom flange welding and bracket fabrication.

if you are interested in just the mounting flange/bracket, let me know as well. i will separate it from the valve, and this will turn your rbovii into a bolt on kit.

dont quote me on this, because I have no idea what it actually sounds like, but from what people have said, the HKS "racing" bov is known as the turkey valve. IMO, many of the cars in this video have this sound. Or it may be just an SSQ, or something other BOV that I'm not familiar with. Just thought I'd post this video. Its an ad for the new advan neova tires, and I think it was posted before somewhere on this forum. Anyhow theres some sweet RX-7's in this vid.

who said i have stock turbos?
Who said im not gonna run 20+psi?
And i didnt do it for sound, because i actually bought the quiet inserts for the bov's. No more squeaky noise.
