HKS SSQV Fins Question

Recommended Posts

I thinking of being a ricer and buying a replacement fin for my HKS SSQV just to alter the bov noise :looney: Is the gold fin the one that actually makes it louder? I know the purple fin softens the noise. Im asking this as a trader has told me that the gold fin makes the noise louder, but a fellow user on the SXOC has informed me that a gold fin made no difference to the bov noise on his S14.... So if i want to make the bov louder is the gold fin the one to go with? And no, i dont want to adjust the screw on the bov as I dont want to mess up the setting :)

Mine came with a purple one too. I feel like I'm missing out:(

So what IS the difference between the three colours then?

 

Remember its not the purple thing on the inside of the bov, its the 3 prong fin thing that is at the open mouth of the bov that is held in with allen bolts.

Mine has the purple centre thing, but the silver fins :)

I have one on mine....came like it when I got it?? :tongue: does yours make a fluttery sound Ian when backing off the throttle at low boost??

 

Yes it does. It's rather unique in the world of bovvery. One of my friends called it a deranged chipmunk. Nice.

SSQV Insert

 

 

The HKS SSQV silver triple-fin discharge design produces a powerful and unique aggressive blow-off sound along with added visual distinction. Additional triple-fin inserts are available in gold (standard high frequency sound) for visual appeal and in purple metallic (emits a lower frequency sound than both the standard and gold SSBV inserts) for an alternate sound and appearance. SSQV inserts are easily interchangeable within minutes.
