Ralliart Neutral Newbie April 22, 2007 Share April 22, 2007 i heard that putting a BOV on WRX will have diff in readings of e sensors as the air entering the throttle valve is diff?it seems it will affect the engine in the long run is it true?i intended to install but now have my doubts...pls enlighten. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cave Neutral Newbie April 22, 2007 Share April 22, 2007 Yes but will not affect the engine lah. Your FC will be bad cos the maf sensor will give your ecu false readings when the air that is suppose to recirculate is now vented out to the atmosphere. But its the price you will have to pay to get the "phssshhh" sound. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cave Neutral Newbie April 22, 2007 Share April 22, 2007 Oh, you will also lose abit of power on the low end. Not much diff on the high end. Also you will hear back firing of your exos coz the rich unburnt fuel iginite in your exos. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cave Neutral Newbie April 22, 2007 Share April 22, 2007 The best is get the adjustable one...like Go Fast Bits Stealth BOV which can adjust to recirculate of vent out. Im using one now and if i want the sound, just twist the BOV. Then get sound and suffer FC but if not jus twist to full recirculate like the OEM BOV. There are other BOV like the Stealth too but price will be bout $450. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cave Neutral Newbie April 22, 2007 Share April 22, 2007 haha i think you are refering to the HKS BOV (SSQV) for the high pitch sound. The low pitch are the common "pssshhhh" sound by most of the other brands like blitz, turboXs, GFB,...etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Friendstar Supercharged April 22, 2007 Share April 22, 2007 but the low one is so much nicer. its like george clooney couthing. very man the high pitch is truly awful. i'll be embarrassed to have it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cave Neutral Newbie April 22, 2007 Share April 22, 2007 Individual preference bro. its really attention grabber. Only HKS has tat sound so its also a brand thing. But i prefer the classic "pssshhhh". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
