So I am going up to 12.5lbs of boost on my V2 SQ Vortech Supercharger. I was wondering if anyone had input on the BOV on the aftercooler. Can it be adjusted this much? Or should I start looking for a new valve? Just trying to cover all my bases before I go to tune it can only leak through so much pressure and messes my TB up.

 

interested to hear this too. I asked Jeff at SOS in an email yesterday and still havent received a reply. I am running 12psi on a SOS Stage 2+ and am going to 14psi soon. Good thing to know if your BOV or diverter in my case, can handle it

 

I believe the vortech BOV is good for 14psi

 

i used to have a synapse bov. it worked great and sounds great

 

the synapse bov...

love that youtube video they have, "this beach blows!"

I believe I saw somewhere that the one on our sos kit is good up in the twenties.

 

but would 12.5 be pushing it if it only goes up to 14lbs? I dont like not being prepared is all. Cause we all know on this forum that if you dont do FI right the first time it will cost you double the second time.

 

I guess swap it out for something better to be safe.

 

word. sounds good.

 

Well Im running just about 18psi with my SOS kit and the Bosch valve hasn't leaked. I asked Chris this same thing because they are prone the leak on the VW/Audi's. He said it wont leak because they run them backwards but I'm Leary. I haven't had any issues yet but ya never know.
