was hanging out at an evo shop and decided to try the turbosmart BOV. it fits alot better, holds boost, no flutter, and sounds better. best part is it uses same size ports making for a direct replacement without needing to weld a flange on and you could use exiting piping but would need to be cut, cory@ams tuning found some old pipeing and hooked it up. got it used for 150 installed.

Nothing special but just another option for people out there

TurboSmart Dual port Evo 8 specific- recir and atmospheric configurations

I still need to mess around with the spring tension but it extremly adjustable(just turn the red cap). ill try to upload sound clips when i got a chance

 

Nice!! See if you can make a short vid of a flyby so we can hear the difference. I'm not sure I will mind the flutter, but its nice to know there are options out there. I love the sound of the Raptor BOV on my TN Single.

 

LOL Cass-love your sig, sooo true around here...

OP-nice cheap mod to be different.

 

- thanks. Just tryin to keep up with the Berto's (Driven1, MDracer76, BamBam, Superchargedg, jtgli and many others). Maybe one day you will make me famous in one of your youtube vids -

 

LOL-you staying with the TN kit?

 

cass yah ill try to but with 3'' dual exhaust and open wastegates it will be hard to get a good idea. ill put it this way i couldnt hear my bov with stock exhaust and now i can hear this one. its a woosh sound oppose to pshhhh.

here what it sounds like on an evo, mine sounds similiar but more muted since i havnt messed around with the settings

- that sounds similar to my Raptor BOV. What language is the guy in the vid speaking - lol?

 

any sound clips??? I'm thinking about switching out my APS BOV for this one

 

SSQV + APSTT = Sex.

 

everybody knows the only people that like the sound of the SSQV are ricers........

as serious as a heart attack

 

I missed you too Aaron.

 

I knew you did

 

Zivman which B.O.V are you running with your APS TT?

 

I switch between the supplied APS BOV and a Synapse BOV. The synapse sounds good, but it is a bit loud for my taste.

 

Are you running a filter on the recirc tube, running there anti-stall kit or just have it open. I placed an order for one today, should be here in a week or so. Just curious to how your running it right now

 

I changed my HKS to the Synapse also....Had an issue with boost leak...car was acting up just as it went into boost. Took it to Protech in Austin, they checked all the hoses...they were fine but car kept acting up....after speaking to Sharif...Decided to change the BOV and d@mn...wouldnt you know it...that fixed the problem

 

I am running mine without a filter...I have never seen anyone run it with one. Luie was the first person I saw with this BOV.

 

XKR do you have boost source hooked up to port C?

 

Yes I do...they suggest if you run more than 7 psi you should hook it up.

 

I have the flange on the intake pipe capped off and running the BOV open with no filter or anti-stall. I am not running the OEM maf -> I am running a MAP sensor. If you are running the maf, you may need to recirc
