okay so i have the hks ssqv bov because i was told it would give off the rattle sound and not the big release of air..i was told there were inserts for the hks that could change the sound..maybe to the rattle that i want..i was also told that there is a bolt i can tighten on the top part of the bov to also give me the sound that i want..anyone know how i can achieve the rattle sound?..thanx for the help ppl

 

what kind of rattle sound? gott a clip?

 

yea, I had a hks on my eclipse and it sounded good. But its not worth the problems in the long run.

 

do you mean like a flutter? the HKS SSQV gives a really high pitched sound (i think its sweet), but the closest thing to a "rattle" i can think of is when i didn't have a BOV on my turbo integra it would make like a flutter when the air went backwards through the compressor (not really a good thing, sounded cool/different though, i like the BOV sound better tho)

so yeah if you have an intake and you set your HKS SSQV too tight you will probably be able to hear air hitting the compressor blades and flowing backwards

 

sorry no clip...yea the flutter sound...i meant the rattle like a rattle snakes rattle..haha...

 

I thought you werent suppose to adjust any of the bolts on the bov. I think the rattle noise is probably the flutter noise. Over here they call it diarrhea sound

 

haha..yes indeed the flutter......i think it sound weird but cool....any suggestions on what to do?

 

I think this is what you were talking about when you said inserts in the HKS that makes the sound change.

yes exactly..is that would i have to and get to achieve that flutter sound?

 

DONT get it VTA=PITA , Other ppl will tell you diffrent "mine fine , it runs great"...
But at the end of the day you will have a $30k pos that stalls when "you dont drive it right" .

 

well i actually have the bov on now and its been on for a few months and never had a problem(no recirc kit)...i just heard that flutter sound and was wondering if i could achieve it witht he hks..

 

been there done that , I could not lie to my self anymore so I got a MR valve .
MORE POWER TO YA !

 

if you have good touch and want to hear the flutter sound do this...

in 3rd or 4th gear(4th is better) at about 3200 rpms and slowly increasing the revs with like 15% throttle start to hit boost ~ 4-6 lbs...then slowly let off the gas, your bov should flutter really loud...thats how i get mine to flutter, sounds really mean, but i have a greddy type-s...

my buddies supra has the hks ssqv and i couldnt make it flutter and supras are known for a mean flutter sound...i dunno just try it

 

I find that tightening the spring will produce more of a flutter sound but it creates compressor surge...
