New Bov = Surge?

[daisu]

Not everyone can afford to spend $500 on a blow off valve.

But you can afford to run the risk of hundreds of dollars for fines and/or loosing your license for having an atmospheric venting valve?

stock bov is $40.00 on the forums, no need to spend $500

the noise an aftermarket bov makes when venting will be different to the stocker, are you sure its not just a "different" sound?

my advice, put the stocker back on

Also, atmospheric venting valves are usually designed to stay shut more than a plumb backs due to the problems associated with them opening at idle.

Yep, seen many a car running a plumb back BOV in an atmo way. At idle its open and sucking in unfiltered air.

Even seen people have mini air filters on them.

The design principle between a plumb back and atmo are identical so the only difference would be the atmo BOV's running harder springs that cant be pulled up under vacuum.

New Zealand is a great place when it comes to atmo bov.

And the $500 was in reference to some one saying it was a cheap ebay bov, when it wasn't and i dont have money for an hks one etc... Basically I spent the money already and if I can get it working without having to spend more on a new stock bov, after i bought this one, I would rather do that.

I'll post up a video tommorow with how I have it installed and the sound it does. It might just be that the sound that is being produced is correct but i'm freaking out beacuse it's different.
