Thread: what BOV are you running?

what BOV are you running? how do you like it? how do you have it set up(re-circ, atmospheric, etc)? just curious cause finally got a hold a an avenir motor.

thanks,
Mark

stock.... re circ.... sounds great to me. i really dont know the advantages of anything after market....

Congrats on the Avenir .

I'm running a stock W10/W11 BOV, it gets the job done, but good luck finding a flange for it prewelded on the pipe. Though the stock W10/W11 BOV has similar flange to the DSM First Gen.

A little ago I bought a Greddy type BOV from SiliconIntakes.com, haven't installed yet but will soon. I need to tighten the spring for now, otherwise it might leak.

Greddy Type R on the S14 and a Tail 50mm on the other car.

Stock 1G DSM BOV on mine. Vented to atmosphere right now until I get it recirculated.
It was my 1st choice because it is the best performance per dollar, and I didn't need anything with a higher flow. It will hold 18 psi unmodified, and can hold unlimited boost modified.

Also have extensive experience with the 50mm Tial BOV. I love these, but would likely get the recirculation version for personal use.
Again, extensive experience with the typical Bosche diverter valve. If you don't need to flow a lot of air and are recirculating, it's hard to beat this thing.

50 mm Tial on the new build

1g dsm BOV no point of getting anything else greddy sucks as well as hks's

I have a Blittz BOV old skool trumpet . I had a old Bosh unit i gave to Serban , it slightly bigger than the stock avenir one and can hold more boost. They came stock on the mitsubishi EVO

tial 50mm on my car, had a turboXS rfl it was a good bov never had any problems with it leaking at idle or anything uncirc

Synapse Engineering Synchronic BOV. BAD mamma jamma.


Going to ditch my 44mm TiAL wastegate in favor of a Synapse unit, too. (Their wastegate has a boost controller built into the tophat.) Another reason to consider: They pulled a 50mm TiAL wastegate off of a test car, slapped on their Synapse unit, and at LESS boost, made +20whp at redline. Dyno sheets comparing multiple variables all showed consistant increases in power with less boost.

Sorry /offtopic.
