Cost effective BOV that works?

STETT Performance · 03-31-2011, 02:30 PM

$600 for a BOV? Where are you shopping? Lol.

We offer whole charge pipe kits with either DV's or Synapse/Tial BOV's and all our kits come well under the $600 you said in your post.

$600 would be a deal if it had a D on it

The HKS sounds great, but it is notorious to have significant compressor surge issues hence the rattle snake sound you hear a lot.

D335NUTZ · 04-01-2011, 08:55 AM

Synapse or Tial IMO

When am I suppose to hear this rattle snake sound? While driving? I have yet to hear any rattle snake sounds or anything similar to that. No problems either

D335NUTZ · 04-02-2011, 09:28 AM

JBSpeed sells one for $125 new. Can't really tell you how the quality is though since I don't use it. I use a Ultimate racing chargepipe with Tial BV 50mm

gotham23 · 04-02-2011, 02:47 PM

this is a noob question but can will a bov work on an automatic 335?

Give hard throttle in lower rpms and then let off the gas. The HKS is easy to get compressor surge on.

You should research how a forced induction engine works. If you don't know, you shouldn't be modifying anything.

Relax, It will work, you just wont hear it as much, b/c theres less pressure loss between shifts in the automatic. When idling you'll definately hear it!

Absolutely, our blow off valve kit for the 335 is the same blow off valve but just two of them. We have special connectors fabricated so that the kit is all plug and play.

I have an install video for it on youtube:

They are $315...
We also have a set that was on our shop car and are selling them with new hardware to install the kit. Price for those is $240 and they are in great shape.

Hey can you IM me info on the one you had on your shop car, thanks. I'd send you an IM but I'm using the bimmerpost app on iPhone and I don't think you can do that from here. Thanks.

Hmm that seems like a decent price and product. Anyone have feedback or used it? I wonder if it was just one put together from eBay parts and he called it a kit... I wonder how it would compare to the more expensive ones.

dado337 · 04-23-2011, 02:13 AM

Where can I get a charge pipe that will work with a Synapse bov? I think i like that sound the best

DOUT · 04-23-2011, 02:27 AM

JBSPEED/****** for $125.00 Shipped.

What is the difference between that one and like the AA or Tial.... The price difference is huge for them to be comparable... Anyone have personal experience with JBSpeed?

Also where can I get a charge pipe to work with Synapse bov?

JBSPEED is great to deal with and I have heard nothing but good things.

dado337 · 04-23-2011, 02:47 AM

Also, where can I get it for $125? It's $180 on the JB site.

jbspeed is a good vendor..as for the BOV it's just a cheap part. A ton of ppl end up swapping them because the BOV doesn't hold boost properly. Don't cheap out, youll end up spending more money in the end. Evolution Raceworks and STEET both have the proper charge pipes to fit the synpase.

Tuner1984 · 04-24-2011, 05:09 PM

For anyone who's looking at the Helix/AWE forged diverters or bov it's a great product!!! I'm currently running it on my car.
