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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.DaveSize of the unit TURBOSMART KOMPACT DUAL PORT 25mm BOVStandard BOSCH BOVInstalled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
