Blow off question!
Hello guys. I'm planning to be fbo next month and already decide which dp's, intercooler,intake to go. But while reading around here i was convinced that i also need charge pipe and blow off, if i'm gonna run high boost with e85.
So the question is which bov to go. i mean those of you who alredy got bov kits just to say your opinion about the loudest? quality? Active autowerke? or HKs? or TIAL? Advice please!

All the BOV's you mentioned will be more than sufficient to hold high boost. It will really come down to sound preference. You can easily find videos on all types of BOV's with a quick search (Google magic ).

Sturdy charge pipe, uses OEM style connector and c-clip which I liked. The bov itself is loud, it shares the same flange as Greddy BOV's so you can mix things up. I had to buy an extended coupler and t-clamps for the connection to the intercooler pipe.

At higher boost levels aftermarket BOV/DV will definitely be beneficial. Last edited by BoostedE90; 06-25-2013 at 11:43 AM.. |

At this juncture I would sway people away from Synapse. They have a high failure rate as of recently and they refuse to warranty their products.
Luckily I've always recommended Tial to all my customers when asked. Our most popular charge pipe /BOV kit sold today is the Evoluion Racewerks, Tial BOV. Usually in anodized black. |

Funny you say that cause I have seen in the past threads about the stock charge pipe cracking or popping off and always thought it was related to the stock DV's failing causing excess pressure at the throttle body when closed. That almost make sense

I've heard of some DV leaking but I've never had an issue with mine at higher boost levels.
