To those of you running the HKS or Greddy, I'm assuming that you needed a custom mount welded together to use on the Comptech? Post some pics, if you can...

I've personally never seen anything other than a Godzilla valve on the Comptech kits...

 

yeloscreamer has the HKS. He posted pictures before. Use the search bar. Youll find tons of info on BOV's.

 

On the Comptech, I've been told there is no need/reason to use one other than to satisfy one's need to hear the whooosh.

 

FF2Skip, I think it works better than the by-pass valve that comes stock on the kit. I think my by-pass valve was bleeding off boost at high RPM's My car felt much stronger after the BOV.

How far up in the rpm band do you have to be to actually hear the BOV, can you hear it during normal shifting 3k-5k rpm or is it just when in vtec?

 

I can hear mine starting about 2000 rpms. It constantly leaks air, so I can hear it at idle or cruising also. It gets louder as you rev higher.

I agree with Skip. I have it for the noise.

 

 

how would you know since you never drive yur car Matt! j/k lol, I agree the godzilla is a nice BOV

 

Thanks! Found it: https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.ph...=245199&hl=hks

 

Gotcha, but if it leaks air all the time wouldent you have a boost leak and the supercharger isnt preforming at its potential, I thought this beacuse I come from a turbo car and boost leaks were deff. a bad thing. what am I not understanding?
