For those of you with the v3 kit, had anyone equipped a different recirc bov?

v3 blow off is the same as v2 blow off, so i ll answer anyway for you since i have a v2
it's a bit useless to change it because you need to recirculate it anyway since we have the Maf as a draw-through, you do not see any performance difference neither a change in sound
also, you should then build and adapt a flange to install it, very annoying work actually, for no reasons

you could notice differences, in sound mostly, only if you switch to a pure Speed density tune, then you can ventilate it to the atmosphere, but pure sd tunes are very jerky during normal driving and I do not suggest you to do it

Thank you for elaborating, I probably should have started off by just calling it a valve, rather than a bov. I read that people had issues with the recric valve hks provides with the kit. So I was curious to see if anyone replaced it with a different aftermarket recirc valve.

do you have a boost leak (boost values a lot lower than you had before?) if not , you do not have a problem

I used these parts and it need some drilling for screws.

but I can't recommend this. it gives no actual difference.

good luck !

Not the same in the U S since Scott left the company. You get absolutely no response from their Facebook page. Still waiting to see if they respond on the new
HKS SC/Turbo 86/ Brz Frs owners page. These types of failures are more frequent
