Even maxed out on E85, I don't think the AVO kit will exceed what an Exedy Stage 1 can handle. Personal opinion of course

You should take a look at the new revision Stage 2 Exedy. From what i've read, it has the same drivability characteristics as the Stage 1 but is rated for more power.

Yep I picked up the Stg 1 because I hear it is seriously under-rated.

Glad to hear that I seem to have made the right choice.

I'm thinking over a E85 tune, which would bump power to around 350 hp and torque to just a tad under 300 TQ. Is anyone already slaying this clutch with that amount of torque?

Is anybody still running synthetic 5w-20 oil with their avo kit?

Any suggestion for a blow-off valve which would fit directly onto the AVO kit and could be set up to vent in to atmosphere? I'm missing the blow-off whistle of my STI

I'm running the competition works stage 2, overkill for my AVO output, but gives me room to expand.

cool, thanks. But how much are you pushing and for how long did you have the turbo installed?

Does anyone have a soundclip, where you can here the AVO BOV venting into atmossphere? If there is a noticeable whistle: I'm buyin it!

You can hear it but it's not excessively loud. It's loud enough that I can hear it in the car with the windows closed.

I'll see if I can get a video of it later tonight if no one else has posted anything.

I believe this video has the BOV sound you seek.

Thanks, but you can hear the BOV exactly 2 times for a second, with the mic of the camera mounted 30 cm away from the BOV. So not very representative in terms of showing what noise the BOV produces.

I don't see the point of this video. Cruising around with low revs? What is this video supposed to show exactly?

Could be also a Toyota Prius if you ask me.
