I know the HKS SC system has the bypass valve, but has anyone put an atmostpheric vent bov on this kit yet? Is it possible? Or can you somehow remove the piping so the pressure from the bypass valve is vented into the atmostphere instead of being rerouted?

I'm saying this because I can only here the bypass valve at full throttle near redline and its too subtle and would like to have something I little bit louder.

 

so....no one has any idea?

 

buy a vortech , haha, j/k... so you heading up sat for the dyno day ? see ya there if you are coming.

 

nah I wont be able to make it...its one of my good friends bday. Maybe next time.

 

So is this possible guys? Im guessing you would be able to... A friend of mine put a BOV on his MSP by fabricating a pipe that keeps the diverter valve intact (to prevent stalling) but uses the BOV under medium/heavy load. So I'm guessing it might be similar for the HKS kit but I'm not sure.

 

I'm sure its possible. You could remove the bypass valve, block off the holes, and then weld a mounting pipe.

<---Buying Vortech

 

<- - - Loving Mine

 

<---- wondering about the vortech, such as how complicated/reliable/problems it might have, etc.

 

As previously posted I have a friend that actually work at Vortech. I have been picking his brain for about 2 weeks now. Only thing with Vortech is ther are alot of lil things to install, a few vague instructions and thats all he said...

He did say the HKS was nice if you had the $$$ and you may need some few adjustments (intercooler) but at almost 2g's more I'll pass !!!
