Not quite sure I'm understanding here...in the stock form, the BOV is already on the cold pipe (well, attached to it anyway).

Remember, the location of the hot/cold pipes on an EvoIX is reversed on the EvoX/RA

 

Ok well im talking about getting rid of the rubber piece altogether and attach it straight to the cold pipe

 

Ah I see...what is the purpose of relocating the valve? Is it going to be directly behind the driver-side foglight?

 

No it'll be directly in front of the throttle body.

I just came across this and tried it. So far no problems. I know, I know it's a total ricer and cheap mod but it sounds so much better than the SSQV I had in my car and it doesn't flutter at all. If anyone wants that louder woooosh sound give it a try.

I'll probably get flamed for this...

 

doesn't work flame on buddy!!!

 

Hm... I guess it's restricted from evom...
it's on evox forums site... forums/showthread.php?p=57370

 

Hey guys,
Trying to figure out BOVs. I think that the RAs come stock with a recirc bov?maybe kinda? I am wondering if anyone has changed out their bov and used anything other than a recirc, if thats even a name. Let me know what you got and how you like it. I am not really looking for a huge whoosh sound, also not sure if a recirc bov, again if thats even a term, would do any damage to turbo/engine. Thoughts please

 

Yes our cars come with a recirculating setup. You can do a vent to atmosphere setup (for the "ping" sound) but it's not great performance wise especially if the car is not tuned for it. If you want to hear the turbo just get a short ram intake and you'll get a nice woooooosh sound. =)

Yes, but if you do get a short ram intake like Taranis is suggesting, you'll also need to get the car dyno-tuned to make sure your air/fuel ratios are correct so that you don't do any damage to the engine.

 

there have been plenty of threads about the issues of using a bov and some people have tried without a tune... screwed up their car. search it up see what they said

 

just take you fot off the gas when you shift you'll here if, you windows are down music off, and it not to windy.

getting the timing down so it does not jerk the car is the hard part

 

To get the most out of your transmission shifting, you will want a re-circ. BOV

I upgraded to a Forge and it looks awsome! The small stock boost sense line doesnt fit to well though. I just bought a foot of 3/16" fuel hose (I believe stock is 1/4") and I shoved it on, it's so tight you dont even need hose clamps.

 

I have an agency power one coming this week that's adjustable. full vent, 50/50, or recirculating. I'm going to run it recirculating since it'll work the best. Sound isn't really worth it IMO.

 

If you're just looking for sound you can actually run the stock BOV to vent to air. I tried it and it sounds great and didn't have any CEL or problems
