Turbosmart Blow Off Valves Thread

[urslow]

Im thinking of ordering one of these in the next few days...has anyone got any feeback on them?

I believe they are a direct replacement.

Atmo and plumb back adjustable for the best of both worlds :banghead:

$310 from autobarn or $299 online..

I have fitted one of these about a yr ago. They are a duel port but even when screwed tight you will still have the atmo noise. Easy as to fit with not a single mod required. I like it and think it sounds good, but there are many people here that hate atmo valves. cheers

I dont have any pics unfotunately. I have put my valve on nang3's typhoon and there was not much difference in sound. Will be interesting with 15psi!!!! Its alot different to the std bosch plumpback valve!!!

Mines on std boost by the way. Also when you give it wide open throttle it kinda makes a double vent!! You have a manual yeah?

I Installed the BOV today and have some pics..

I decided to face the trumpet back towards flywall for two reasons. 1. I think you need a longer hose to make it turn all the way up so the trumpet is facing the bonnet..wasnt quite long enough to turn...and 2. it looks more stock (In case of cops) when u cant fully see a trumpet looking straight at u.

What do you think?

It sounds a hell of alot louder and the duration of the noise is quite long ..2 secs maybe when u come on boost and then back off...

I like it anyway and recommend it to anyone that wants a BOV but doesnt want ot buy an adapter kit and piping to keep that stock look

Took me about 1/2 hour and u only need a good set of long nosed pliers.

Can you get it to not make any noise and plum back like you are supposed too?

Would be good if you wanted to go stealth and IH8TOADS said it was still loud on his?

Still makes a bit on minimum..but ive got it about 1/2 way..

Anyone know the bov laws.....is it the noise they care about or what, coz plumb backs can still make heaps of noise..
