Does anyone know which one it is? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1o0k-t78Rw4 Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicolai Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 If you think that is a stock Twin turbo supra, youre wrong. http://videos.streetfire.net/search/t51r/0/c914c0a6-d492-4e71-aa27-14428f0028b8.htm This is the same vid, its a Single(T51R) turbo supra.

Guest Wassie Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 Ok, so what does that mean for the Blow off Valve I am looking for? Sorry, is there a difference in sound with a single or twin t? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustGav Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 Is yours a jspec or UK spec? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Wassie Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 The car is originally from New Zealand. So I take it it is a Jap spec. Mine is a twin turbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustGav Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 Okay, only reason is that MAF equipped spec's (UK, US, VVTis) have a slight issue with BOV's. The most common ones I seem to remember are HKS and Blitz... I personally run the HKS units and they seem fine, stay AWAY from the ebay knock off ones they are terrible for leaking.

Guest Wassie Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 Ok, I was planning on going to a company here in SA that does this. I just needed the name so they can install it for me. I also have a friend that got 350 kW out of his Subaru, and he now has a GTR33, who will help me with it. I just love that sound though.

AgtX80 Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 Not sure but sounds like that HKS Super sequential blow off valve. I asked about BOV's the other day & Gaz6002 posted this video of his which has the HKS, sounds kinda like the one in that video Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 I am looking for the name and model of the blow off valve used in the following clip. Does anyone know which one it is? There are 2 separate sounds you can hear on that vid each time the guy changes gear; the high pitched whistle is the BOV, the lower fluttering sound is the single turbo stalling. It's a common misconception that the fluttering sound you can hear is the BOV, it's not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Wassie Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 See, now that makes a lot of sense. Thanks Nic. My logic told me that if that fluttering was the BOV, it means the air is bypassing at another place. Why else would it close the release valve.
