Default Updated BOV pics...Turbonetics Raptor??

Here's some pics of a potential redesign of the Raptor BOV by Turbonetics. They are currently testing a few different designs to change the sound up a little bit for those that are interested in doing so. Just thought I would share.

I guess that would happen when you are personal friends with the staff of a company. You don't have to work somewhere to know the people who do. I know ACT is developing a twin plate clutch for the Z does that mean I work for them too?

Great questions. Let me first and foremost say that this is just a prototype unit. The final version may be a bit DIFFERENT WHEN or IF we decide to come out with this bov. Some of the internals have been changed to help it sound different.

Someone asked for a 2006 kit. Before we get to that. We still have to finish our Stage 2 kit.

And just like that - the mysterious phantom made off into the night. Still rubbing the mist from their eyes, the crowd looked at eachother and said:

"Did he just say Stage 2?"
