    Which BOV

    I think its time to remove my Vent to atmosphere dump valve now i'm no where near 17 anymore!!
    Which Recirc BOV should I consider? Ease of fitment/quality etc?

    Cheers,
    Dave.

    I got a hks ssqv, none of that horrible hesitation that you get with a VTA. Plus it sounds awesome.

    What is a bloody pigeon? Apart from the obvious feathered vermin?

    It's the noise associated with running without a dump valve. Just a jokey really.

    Jez Horsham sells a couple of decent recirc kits on www.h-dev.co.uk

    Search for pigeon mod, tbh if your dont want stupid noises then stick a decent recirc on as your car will run best that way, pigeon gives part throttle stutter at speed. If I were to recirc I would buy forge recirc just because I really like forge as a company, recirc'd HKS ssqv seem popular and if you aint running much boost the standard recirc will be fine. Iv not tried any recirc apart from standard though so do your research before spending money.

    I'm running 1.5bar boost.
    Mine already makes a pigeon noise anyway. But I want a recirc on cos i'm not 17 anymore and don't want the tttsssssshh sound everytime I change gear that the atmos dump valve makes, that is a forge motorsport one as it happens.

    Forge do recirc DV's to, it may make pigeon sound low levs due to a tough spring then higher up dump. Tbh its worth while speaking to Jez at HD, tell him what you want and im sure he will suggest what to go for with what spring, if your lucky your forge may be recirc'able but thats me just guessing so dont quote me.

    I'm running a sard r2d2, not really a fan of dv's but with the sard it only really kicks in on full boost/high revs. So you get chatter at low revs and dv at high revs it's a win win situation. Plus as dv's go it's a really quite one.
