Hiding a BOV

[Guest gtst88]

Is it possible to hide a BOV with the std cooler ? by placing it somewhere near the cooler ?

i'm kinda new to this kind of things .. please help me ! thanks !

well for the stock piping, the BOV is located out in the open, meaning that is a copper worth his salt pops your hood, it would pretty much stick out. you could move it lower down the intercooler pipes i suppose if you had an aftermarket intercooler but why would you want to hide a blow off valve for?

assuming u get a yellow for your BOV, just swap it over with the stock one and go over pits...end of story

but if u get a yellow and you have a BOV welded on to your piping then it would make it trickier to remove just for an inspection rite

You could keep the original bov there with a metal plate between it the original position on the ic piping and the vacuum line and return pipes hooked up to nothing (for show - just route them down into the belly of the engine). Then just put the other bov down near the front bar on the ic piping - before or after the ic is up to you, I've seen it in both positions. It'll make it nice and loud too. I think PranK did this actually with his Blitz one. He said it was ****ing loud.

I have a HKS one down in my wheel arch It makes it sound bloody loud which is a problem.

yah, on my old gtst i had a Blitz one mounted infront of the passenger front wheel.. but it was extremely loud.

i saw an R34 with 2 x SSQV just after his aftermarket intercooler piping exit.. down low at the bumper ..

if i do it like this cops wont know right ? so i wont get a yellow ?

Supposedly yes... but once they catch one person hiding one down there then everyone will be caught thereafter... basically if you buy a BOV you are running a high risk of being canaried for it, if you don't want that risk, don't use one. Simple eh?
