Dump value which isn't too loud?
Hi all!
I have a 03 WRX Blob and I'm looking to upgrade my blow off valve but I want something which isnt too loud when plodding but makes a nice noise when booting it.
I don't want to hear a loud WHOOOSH when i'm pulling out of Tescos car park at 15 mph
Any suggestions?
Much appreciated!

PLEASE: do a search on here for dumpvalves.
Upgrade? No such thing...in fact many aftermarket ones will make the Scoob engine run badly, not to mention cause things like borewash, which could damage your engine/cat etc.
Stick with the standard, save your money.
If you MUST waste money, stick with the recirculating type.
And no...they don't woosh.

Hi!
Thanks for your response. I have searched on here and I am aware that Bailey and HKS are very popular. But lots of people mention that some are louder than others in their experience...I simply want to know which are the quieter of the BOVs used by people on here.
Much appreciated

haha understood!
Question 2... Are these valves fitted post MAF?
If I block the re-circulation pipe, Will the car cope with the pressure drop as it is?
Thanks!

haha! I think you can buy electric ones for non turbo cars!
excuse my ignorance.... I know they are replaced to deal with higher pressures when larger turbos are installed, but why don't they all recirculate? unless you have some serious airflow, anyone who vents to atmosphere is just doing it for the sound, surely??

Why do some people hate them? Ots each to their own really.
Personally i love them, and who cares if you have one or not.
Anyway how is it anymore chavvy than a noisy exhaust? Its not.
Oh and they dont blow your engine up noones ever blown their engine from fitting a BOV... If they have then give us some evidence?

There really is no proof. Theres more risk in people who rag their car to the limit constantly.
And im sure many will argue a loud exhaust is a daft noise only for chavs....

Im running a forge VTA on a V2, I havent suffered borewash pugwash or carwash. The only valid argument I've heard about VTA valves is if you like the noise or not, but then Im not an expert with 2000+ posts like Lord Hardon. Talking about chavtastic cars, have you seen Lord hardons uk turdo, the bay looks like a 5 year old has been at it with a big box of crayola.
Call forge motorsport they will advise you on what dump valve to use, they'll also shim and fit the correct spring.
