I have an HKS SSQV and its probably a knock off but it works great! I've never had an issue and it always holds boost very strong.

I have the new SSQV4 on an Evolution Racewerks CP and love it. Looks good next to my DCI and sounds amazing. It also increased my throttle response and now I go through the lower RPM quicker... it definitely exceeded my expectations . Not to mention ER customer service.. they literally walked me through the install.

i've searched other "BOV" threads but i guess i couldn't fine my answer.

from my research, it shows that an A6 car will not blow off.

why doesn't it blow off?

is it because the automatic holds boost between shifts !?!? <--- i'm dreaming, i know

.....but, i still want to know why an auto would not blow off even if it shifts....
