I am going to purchase the HKS sequential BOV.
my question is

Does the BPV gets eliminated or not?
and
What kind of noise doess it makes? swushh?

BOV typically arent good for a S/C and the BPV on mine I hear it click, but no woosh sound like a BOV since the air is just put back into the intake system.

i be makin muh ride go swushhhh for madd tite horsep0wer y0.


In all seriousness, a BOV typically isn't good for a s/c as stated above.

I talked to one member who has the hks bov and he said that the bov works good.

but

does the bpv gets eliminated?
please someone who has /had the hks bov

A BOV will replace the BPV. It's one or the other.

As stated before, a BOV on the SC will make your A/F go wacky and lean, which is not worth it for the sound.

thanks

so I will go with the bosh 110 bpv

Or if you're looking for the sound, you can go for the Forge Hybrid SPLT-R...recircs most of the air, but also has an atmospheric portion that gives you a little "whoosh" sound...it's nothing major, but it's definitely more audible than a BPV.

If you're running the TRD reflash, your car needs that air recirced into the intake so that the ECU can meter out the proper A/F mix...

do a litte more research.

for upgraded bpv you can get a bosch 110 or forge 007

the bosch 110 is cheaper but someone told me that pretty much after one year you have to replace it.

the forge 007 is more expensive but it also comes with a tuning kit, meaning different colored springs that hold different boosts.

i am personally using the forge 007 w/ blue spring and 2 shims. others have used the red spring.

at WOT it does sound nice

ok first of all, the BOV is not bad for the supercharger and it alone does not make your car run lean. It's usually when coupled with the CAI where it makes your car run lean. And also the A/F ratios do not go "whacky". My A/F ratios stay pretty good according to my wideband gauge. But as they said, it does replace what would be a BPV. I have the HKS SSQV BOV and it sounds AND works great! I just recommend getting a piggyback (or standalone if you got the cash) instead of the reflash with a good dyno tune and you will be in great shape

I think your experience is the only one that says BOVs are without problems

i can back him up on this one. im also running the HKS ssqv bov VTA. no recirc here. great valve.

there are a few others that work...

gfb hybrid = POS, leaks major boost, real loud though.

greddy rs = good at holding boost, some say it leaks but i havent experienced it, makes a woosh noise, not as loud as GFB but way more audible then the forge splitters ive heard on youtube

I believe BrownDogg is running a HKS Super Sequential on his TRD tC. I don't know how it sounds though... I do know its pretty easy to run a BOV on a s/c tC though.

anyways "Wooosh Sound" = teh Gayness. Gets annoying very quickly.

mahalzkita28

you dont need to get into boost if you dont want to hear it

Gerard_gmaiz

I don,t care if it goes lean because with the apexi neo i can tune it well

but do you loose whp for that boost that escapes?

bpv or 50/50 split - search it ... we have talked about it more then once and have always concluded on NOT using only a bov.

BuddhasTC

He was, i'm running his setup now

06SuperWhite_SoCal_tC

ah, any sound clips... from either of you?

06SuperWhite_SoCal_tC

BOV don't serve a purpose other than to make teeny bopper girls giggle when you drive by... lol

BOV = teh lose
