even if you recirc your hks ssqv... i dont see the point... it wont perform any better than you stock bov... the stock bov is actually very good.. only reason you would want an aftermarket one on an evo is for the sound, at the expense of your car running crappier. If you recirc, you'll lose the sound, so it's pointless.

Even with the recirc kit, the SSQV causes problems. It's just not worth the money. Sell it and get a good recirculating BOV like I listed above.
93_FD, that's for you, too.

Stock CBV:
21.8 PSI at 5670 RPM (peak recorded boost)
20.5 PSI at 7250 RPM (last recorded boost)
HKS SS (recirculated, using adapter to fit to stock piping):
21.7 PSI at 5736 RPM (peak recorded boost)
21.4 PSI at 7250 RPM (last recorded boost)

i think that if you run the ssqv recirculated, it runs fine. only if you run it vta, then you'll run into problems. if i'm wrong, someone show me a thread where the person has a problem with the bov when its recirculating, its always because its VTA.

Don't tell that to my car. I've been VTA on the SSQV for over a year, with ZERO problems. All I'm tuning with is an AFCII, never been flashed.
I do plan to recirculate here soon, but only because of the noise, not any driveability problems.
Have you personally run an SSQV on an EVO, Warr?

i ran one on my 03 both vta and recirc'd ... had the same stalling problems both ways... and yes i reset my ECU each time. I got use to it, and learned how to make it not stall but doesnt mean it was running correctly, i will say that thing held boost up to 25 like a champ. i would use it again if i had one available but i wont buy it again. i have a greddy type S knock off that came with my UICP, i had no stalling issues with running that VTA but i think it being a knock off hurt because it didnt hold boost very well.

I commend you guys for not bashing the OP about this BOV.
But I still don't understand "Why" people asking "Why" they are having problem with it. Some people don't seem to have problem with it doesn't mean it will work well for everyone. In fact it is proven that far more people have problem with it than not.
It's like a good looking chic with "STD" tatooed on her butt. Everyone wanna hit it no matter the cost.
So quit being a ricer and use a proper recir vavle! or suit up and convert to SpeedDensity.
