I searched for about 20 minutes to get some info on muffling my Vortech BPV but came up with nothing. I remember seeing some people mention how they have a silencing mod from one of the Z1 shops (since there are 2) but I don't remember which one. I already have the BPV filter from Vortech and it does absolutely nothing
. Anyone know which Z1 shop has this mod or what I can do to bring down the noise?

I used the K&N filter Vortech sells and filled it with a foam type air filter . It has to be able to flow air quite easily to make sure your bpbov still works right
to recirculate it back into the intake . You would have to relocate the bov to the other side of the IC and then fabricate it to do so .

Im selling the Greddy BPV which is much quieter than the Vortech BPV. Gives it more of a whiffle sound more similar to a turbo than the loud Vortech Pshhhhhh

Bump up this thread for an answer, is the BPV that loud (noticeable like a BOV)? All the videos ive seen do no justice and you can't hear it. I am thinking of going Vortech and I would lovei if the BPV was loud..

I'm thinking of running the BPV into my intake also (I have a cold air intake for my Vortech) I was going to also add one of these inline http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/QTP-2...mZ300258215087 So I can have the sound when I want it.
