That IC upper is the new HKS setup. I have it as well. It looks sweet, but there are definitely issues without an EIDS. I have the Racing suction as well, but for me I have problems with compressor surge. The BOV is working as it should, but the rattlesnake sound coming from my turbo is its death knell.

 

ahh, the item in the targeted square is the stock BOV eliminator since the BOV is now relocated much further away. I believe this also helps a great deal with the issues that most people experience running VTA. Compressor surge is still bad though HKS, BAD!!!! NO DONUT!!! I am going to fab an airbox and modify my racing suction kit to eliminate the problem.

Also, the recirc kit does not work for this BOV setup, at least, the way it comes. I had to go buy a much longer hose to attempt the recirc. Didn't fix the compressor surge issue, made BOV a little quieter. Went back to VTA since root problem still exists.

 

Here's my setup...

 

That's HKS SSQV Ver2 for evo...part #71001-XM002
it comes with upper ic pipe, BOv, all necessary kits for installation. the intake is stock intake ~man lol i guess u never opend up ur stock intake...iI just took off the cover to take better pic of it.

and I bought used one cheap from someone in forum. now my bov is masical one
I drove my car for 2 days after reinstallation, and It runs so fine..idle perfectly. I guess I succeded to fool out of the MAF....yay~~ hope it never realize the new bov

 

Why dont you tap the vaccum line from the intake manifold and remove the OEM hardline vaccumm tube? Its way shorter then tapping all the way at the end. Btw, the hardline vaccum source is the intake mani

 

ok thanks looks, good. But I am also having surge problems as well, and I have Recirc kit and HKS RS intake too.

O yeah I forgot what the stock intake looks like inside, it's been so long since I've had mine on!

 

I'll try that, thanks for the info!

 

what do you mean by the mod spring and where do i get it from?

 

The Mod spring aka Spring Mod he speaks of is for the Type S. it comes with 2 springs and we take the smaller inside spring out so the BOV blows off easier and eliminates most stumble problems.

 

great thanks. i'll check that out.

 

What does the HKS SSQV sound like with aftermarket intake (HKS RS) ? Is it a whistle or a mutes whoosh? I ahve the HKS RS intake and its a whoosh so far with stock BOV.

 

I have the HKS RS and SSQV ver 2 kit. The silver fin insert is a high pitched exhale. I have the purple fin which makes a much different whoosh. The plus side of the silver fin is that its volume/pitch is far more noticeable from farther away than the purple fin. But the purple fin sound is more "violent" IMO. I thought the silver fin gets annoying after a while.

To try and type those sounds..

Silver -- seee-yutt
Purple ---shhhh-wwwaaa

 

Err... I the piece I highlighted in the pic that I wanted to know where u got it from was the plug for the BOV return. Where'd u get that at? I saw your BOV was set up to VTA.

Thanks,D

 

The plug comes with the kit.
