Hey,

I've owned an Evo VIII until today, I traded it in for an Evo IX MR. I bought a HKS BOV for my otherwise stock Evo VIII and ended up reinstalling the stock BOV because of the idle/stalling problems.

I like the sound but don't want to risk the same problems with my new Evo. I've heard good things about other BOVs like Greddy but I've also read that this is a common problem with the MAF setup. Without modifying the intake, what are my options?

Thanks
Jason

 

the ix comes with a jdm bov!!!

 

Why are you even asking? As eling said, yo ualready have an awesome BOV on your IX. Even if you didn't have the awesome JDM MR DV, why would you think of getting a BOV on a stock Evo? That's just senseless. Do you even know what the purpose of a BOV is? I can assure you the purpose is not to make noise....

 

But he would like it to make some noise, I think he has the ricer spirit in him...

 

no?

 

Warr, I agree with you. I just want to clarify the difference between a "BOV" and a "CBV". I've seen a lot of people calling a compressor bypass valve a blow off valve. I'm not trying to one-up you but I hate seeing people calling a JDM VIII/USDM IX valve a "BOV". No offense, but it can breed ignorance.

 

We've been referring to them as BOVs for over 10 years, so there's no need to mention it other than for educational purposes. People have no idea what a CBV is or a DV half the time, so "BOV" is what it is.

 

Yep.

 

How can you have a turbo car without wanting the "PSHHH!!" when you shift. Yep, initialDRacer nailed it. Call it a BOV, CBV, it doesn't matter. I just want to know if you can get the noise without causing these same problems and without switching out the intake.

 

I am getting really sick and tired of your crappy attitude Warrtalon. i said it before and i will say it again, it is not your place or job to determine what people like or want. you do not have to read these threads and you really should start thinking about being a bit more civil in your posts. the guy wants to hear his car make a "PSHHH!!!" sound and that is his right. unless you are paying for his car OR own this webiste, i highly recommand that you cool it with your crap.

thanks

LOL. Wow thats harsh but very much needed. Evo Jason, if you wanna here the noise but benefit fromit at the same time. Get an intake and a flash for your setup. It'll give you a woosh but hopefully do more good than nothingness.

 

well, theres really no need to be rude to the guy... some people want to be noisy

i think its a terrible waste of money, but hey its your buck...

 

just get a filter and pshhh all you want

 

Sounds like you have some misdirected hostility. Damn you showed me up real quick. You must be mad because I live in California. Oh maybe it's just because my Evo is newer? Hmm...

 

At the risk of being flamed by Warrtalon again for asking an honest question...

I am looking at the Buschur Racing Stage 1 setup. Does anyone know if this intake makes the BOV audible?
