Opinions on Diverter Valves

Does anyone know/have any experience with different diverter valves (NOT ATMOSPHERIC) for the WRX? I had a Forge on my old Eclipse, liked it and the noise. I'm looking for one that's tunable if possible, but mostly I want to hear it. I like to hear what's going on with my car. Any suggestions?

(Yes, I'm used to old cars. Last car was a 21-year old Fiero GT!)

 

Lots of good things about forge, had one on my gti, you can get most in recirc-with a kit, although everyone seems to find leaks with every type, lots run the hks, I always wanted to get the greddy type-s(the purple one) with the recirc kit-those seem like solid ones but they dont make them anymore(i dont think) stock will work best before 19-20lbs of boost-but it you want LOUD go with turbo xs-just find the recirc kit-all diverter/BOV's supposedly leak according to someone--ask bikerboy/wrx1, they have lots of experience

 

Greddy is a BOV with recirculation kit. I'm not so wild on the atmospheric BOVs turned recirc, too touchy with the tuning/spring and stuff. I'll take a look at the HKS when I get on later. Thanx.

 

there are a few companies out there that make BOVs that can cycle between full atmo and full recirc. the company name cant come to mind right no. it might be GFB???

definately get a recirc bov if you want recirc, don try to make a atmo bov go recirc.

 

Yeah, GFB makes one and Turbosmart has a sweet hybrid too

 

how much louder than stock are the aftermarket recirc bovs?

 

I have a GFB valve... never had a problem with it.. from what I know.. got it off ebay $80

 

Aps Ftw!!1!!!

 

My GFB is running recirc and its loud as hell. I'd look for something else if you don't want a noticeably loud BOV sound. Granted i do have a CAI too...

 

anyone got a link to one of theese? i should be able to run it with a resuric on my jetta. sounds cool. i want a loud BOV sound cuz the shutter just dosent cut it. plus shibbs makes fun of me.:biggrin:

i think i could make it work on this. from my cooler pipe to my intake.

 

yeah no...you are that hater my brother tells me about all the time

 

what?

 

After your "bad bora" 2.0 turbo lost to an n/a 1993 legacy you proceded to bash subaru up one side and down another, expecially older ones. Troll

 

what? this was b4 the turbo obviously. and i dont recall saying anything. i was joking with tim alot. where do i know you from? i like subies alot so i dotn know what you ae talking about.

 

this is true, ask me, eli or shane...paul is one of the few that doesnt talk **** about subi's. thats why his car is the subi in denial. lol

 

Paul's just a prick. Just ignore him if he rips on you.

Thucka-thucka-thucka-thucka........ hahahaha

 

lol awsome representation of my D/V eli!
so is this what yall are talking about? http://www.rocketindustries.com.au/descriptions.php?partno=GFB1003BLU cuz i think i can make that work on my car but i wanted to know what its gunna sound like b4 i buy it. i want that BOV sound with out running MEGA rich.

 

^^^hey better than my insane lean still, like i said, we can make it work. lol

 

Nope. I want a full recirculating one, that still makes some noise, hence my asking about the Forge.

 

hmmmm.....let me know what you find eli. i may want in on some of that to. i still have to tell the fiance what i want for x-mas. lol!

 

we have had great results with our forge recirculating valves. we have run over 30psi on them, they are a great bang for the buck! this month special is $145 shipped. These a function over sound, they look great, and work great!

I am contemplaiting getting the ebay TMIC that comes with the Y-pipe and a atomspheric BOV. Is anybody running one of these setups. I am going to get the 16g evo III in January with supporting mods and I can't ignore the deal you can get on ebay for the TMIC. I figure I'll give the generic BOV valve a try that comes with the setup and if it doesn't work, I can replace it after. $250 for the whole setup! What's the catch?
