Just wondering if anyone has any experience with a Turbo XS Tyoe H BOV and if they would recomend it or not.

 

Hmm, I haven't heard of anyone using the TurboXS one. Most people pretty muc go with the Blitz since it bolts right on, I decided to remove my Blitz and get the Greddy Type-S, definitely worth it. I was thinking of the HKS Super-Sequential, but I think I'll try it later in the Spring. Is there a particular reason yor wondering aobut the TurboXS?

 

I remember reading Sprintmax saying he'd never use a Turbo XS product. I guess that means they suck, or he has a personal issue with the company.

 

I know someone with it on his 1.8t and it sounds really good.

 

Turbo XS typeH they say on their website, for cars boosting over 10psi....

 

I realized that just before I read your email. I think I will just go with the Apexi.

By the way youve got mail.

 

I dunno why turbo XS seems to get a bad rap fo being "cheap" or an "imitator" because thats HARDLY the case!!!

My buddy has a Turbo XS type H on his Eclipse, no probs what so ever for the past 2 years. sounds nice, a good "woooosh", no whistle and no "hurricane" sound....I reccomend it.

 

The ten psi minimum is my worry since I don't plan on running that high.

And it does sound great!!

 

Here's a link to some sound clip I heard before I purchased the Greddy. Hope this helps.

Anyone know where I can get the HKS one for cheap? I'm thinking of getting one to replace my Blitz..

 

Try eBay?

 

Yeah I saw a few on there.. Pretty good prices too.. They have flanges in the size of 60mm, 50mm, 55mm.. Do you know which size the blitz flange was? 60mm?

 

Sorry, I went with Greddy. I think those sizes correspond to the size of the hole on the charge pipe after you cut off the Bosch valve stem. Anyone know for sure?

 

Man all this BOV talk is confusing the hell out of me. I want one but in no way want to weld it on. There has to be a way to get one that just bolts upto the charged pipe by a rubber hose like the stock bosch one is.

Check out my BOV stall thread, PCguru2k installed his like you're wanting. He connected the flange to the BOV, then ran a rubber hose from the flange to the inlet on the charge pipe (where the Bosch is normally mounted). To fix the problem with stalling, you could then run a rubber hose from the BOV outlet to the intake pipe so that the released air can recycle back into the system (like Maxboost00 did). I'm not currently having a stall problem with my Greddy BOV, but that's because it's adjusted down pretty far. Unfortunately, that means that the meager 6 psi of boost my stock setup is making is barely enough to make the BOV open and the sound is not very pronounced. Hopefully when I go to a 3.125" pulley, enough boost will be produced to make the BOV sound good.

 

Yeap.. I would def. recommend doing it this way.. But I didn't have to run a hose back uto the system. I just plugged the ther other nipple on the other pipe.. I had initial stall problems but then I just adjusted the screw on the bov... I'm planning on getting an HKS so if anyones interested in the Blitz BOV with Flange PM Me
