Does anyone know???? Come on, it's one of the most talked about things in all of EvoM. It's possibly the worst BOV for the Evo. I told you this in your other thread. You do not get a recirculation kit for it. YOu sell it, then get a proper BOV.

 

If you are losing boost, it might not just be the BOV. I am guessing the your are talking about the HKS SSQV, I have had it on for a while and have not had a problem with it. HKS does make a recirc. kit for the valve but that would not fix your problem of losing boost. Also, when you say it is losing boost, how much is it because the boost on Evo's taper off toward redline.

 

Nick, you're not running the SSQV without a problem - you just don't recognize the problems it causes.

 

warrtalon is in a happy mood Just get a forge DV recirced, 80 bucks. Sell that crap box of a bov for half of what you got it for and you will have a little bit of money in your pocket.

 

No, don't get that Forge DV - it's not good and not recommended at all. The good FOrge is the RS, and it's no less than $170 while the JDM MR DV (or stock IX DV) are just over $100 new.

 

I got the Forge DV, 50K miles and 3 dyno sessions with NO problems. I don't know what the RS is though. I can say I am happy with it. (red spring of course). I was a dumba$$ and got the TurboXS RFL BOV, (in '03) and is was TERRIBLE!! It sounded annoying after an hour or so after installation, and it messed up my driveability BIG TIME!!

 

Hey thanks for the info.
