@serkenshin yeah you can, just make make sure you get a recirculating blow
off valve! i made the mistake of getting one that vents to the atmosphere.
BIG MISTAKE!

thomas urdiales says:

you obv have never owned one of these, its the best bov ive ever seen and
owned! had an hks before and will never switch it out

fastcarkid24 says:

what you get a ticket for a bov.

SynapseEngineering says:

It is recirc, don’t get caught up in the ricer semantics. There are
thousands that have come to understand the value of the Synchronic valve
through their own usage and ownership of the product. It isn’t for
everyone. May I recommend you get a Forge and a tube of lube to reservice
it often.

what stupid flutter noise? I run recirc it has no noise! and usually most
BOV’s will make a flutter and not a whoosh if the spring in the valve is
not set stiff enough

dajuggernaut2099 says:

This is amazing!!! Way better throttle response

boravw1 says:

i have had a turboXS recirc, and a Forge on my saabs and 1.8T’s no problem
and no “reservice” needed. Im not sayin your product is junk, but if you
are running under 20lbs of boost its pointless to buy a aftermarket recirc
on a subie! on the saabs and dubs, the bosch stock one is a pile of junk!
you should show it work on the subaru

Durkadurkaa says:

do i require a tune for this?

MikeDasProfessor says:

is this similar to older wrx (04-05)

LiLTMac123 says:

no its not… its there to make sure its tight

bob nots says:

thats not even a BOV this video sucks

darkwatari says:

wow this made me want to get a bov but i dont wanna ticket lol nice video

fastcarkid24 says:

thats what the kid said (darkwatari)

boravw1 says:

this video is pure junk! for 1 are you really BLOW OFF or are you RECIRC?
and why do you have to tap all over the place to make this recirc valve
work? im not intune with the synchronic but it seems like tappin all over
the place to make it work ehh….

Jacob Aprile says:

@iconone5 saves gas milage

rub504 says:

i need that flange you used! on the website it only shows the flange for
the dv but i need it for the bov.

gcliftonyahoo says:

wouldn’t you get a boost leak because you didn’t use a gasket between the
BOV and the intercooler??

rutager4152 says:

@eruption66 No.

hawaiianchild808 says:

the car have aids man what;s with the latex?

crash60068 says:

is it ok not to have a hose clamp on the bov

ISeanzyyyI says:

@hawaiianchild808 he wears them so his hands don’t get dirty. that’s what i
do, saves me the trouble of scrubbing the hell out of my hands to get all
the dirt off.

merceneri says:

wtf no u dont

iconone5 says:

@konandbru all it does is make a cool sound. id spend the money on
something that will help your car.

chewabacha says:

Awesome information on the end about the “Boost Only” source port! TYVM.

blkwizzard50 says:

@ISeanzyyyI still its a fucking clean motor compared to mine LOL

crash60068 says:

yea i know mines not clamped on. its a bitch toget it back on. im probly
loosing a bit of power but its still on

serkenshin says:

konandbru says:

I just got a 08 wrx, do I really need to get a bov? Does it do anything to
a stock turbo?
