hello to all, i have just put on a hks ssqv adjustable, and wanted to kill the turkeys. I want to know how you guys have gone about doin thing. I'm running just the bov and not the dual setup with the bypass valve. My hks is hooked up for recirculating, i've losen the adjuster all the way to about where it fell off then i put it back on and still had the turkeys. Please help. I have not done a maf relocation to after the bov, would this be a possible problem. I have a perring fmic and the hks is located on the stock position.
hks ssqv people please help!!!!

yeah the vacuum is t'd off , direct source to the break booster should help. The turkeys are pretty crazy. Is it that i'm not running a strong enough vacuum to the bov. Right now i'm having stalling issues when in first gear, and dropping gears from 2nd to first. Would the bov be any cuase for that, i was thinking it wouldn't. I'll see what i need to tap into the brake booster.

If you're using a BOV and not recirculating at all without the MAF relocated you're going to have stalling issues. If you are recirculating move the vac. source from the BOV to the brake booster line like stated before.
Ok def goin to try the brake booster thing. I have a cel light that came on. It says, mass circuit low input, something with the maf sensor. I'm not running an egr valve right now with the 626 mani on my msp. would this be the cause for a maf cel? Also i notice that when i release the gas, my a/f jumps to real rich, 10.2 then drops to extreme lean as it should, but i never noticed that if it did or did not hit real rich before dropping. So my cause for stalling in first gear, might be to the fact that when i tap the gas and let go, it hits real rich causing me to stall. Anyone else have this problem.

BUMB...
i have this same problem, engine light got it checked at autozone turns out is the MAF (wat a surprise) and I also notice my car is running lean and sumtimes wants to stall at idle. Im also running SSQV w/relocated maf, Is there a HOW-TO On the vac. source from brake booster any help wold be greatly appreciated thanks guys

Ok heres what i've done, i tested the car again with the ssqv but t'd off the brake booster line and still got the turkey and my crazy idle issue. It seems like when i tap the gas in first gear and let off the car wants to die out, and sometimes it does and stalls out. Well i took the ssqv off and put my turbo xs bov back on and the problem with the idle seem to be gone. So not sure what it is about the ssqv or what, please any suggestions on that. I check the ssqv and everything seems nice and sealed, tight the adjuster in the back so help on fixing the bov. I did not relocate my maf its on my injen cai but i'm running a recirculating system with the hks. For now i'm goin to run my old bov, its adjustable so i might play around with that and see if i can kill the turkey that way.
Oh for t ing off on the brake booster, I found a univeral t at pep boys, its pretty big but what you do is cut off the tips to the size you need, and i used some solid clamps to make sure there are no leaks. I cut my break booster line kinda in the middle, be careful though becuase there is a one way fitting inside the line, feel for it first, you dont' want to cut to close to that or you can't get the t on becuase it will hit it. You can feel for it in the line, it will be like a hard lump, avoid cutting to close to that. Besides that its real simple. But again didn't solve my problem. Are you vta or recirculated, and did u do the maf relocation?

so you are saying you gave the ssqv its own vacc. source from brake booster and still getting turkey? have you tried adjusting it? im VTA and have MAF on the TB to Intercooler pipe. Im thinking of recirculating from the INJEN to the HOT PIPE w/stock BPV and t-ing of the brake booster line to the ssqv and see what that does.

Well you have the maf relocated, vta shouldn't be a problem, do u have the adjuster on ur ssqv though. That might be a problem. See i bought my ssqv used from a unknown source, i'm not sure maybe if the internal spring might have been changed to a stiffer one maybe, make the msp vacuum not strong enough to kill the turkeys but that wouldn't explain my idling issues.

I heven't had time to play with it yet.. Im gonna work on it this weekend because of the position of my BOV takes time to adjust an play with it, its not located in a convinient spot... Look closely.....http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=123845&stc=1&d=1201584909

Damn man is that safe, hahaha looks cool though, yeah this morning i swapped out the bov from turboxs to the hks and it stalled again, not sure still. I might adjust is and tighten is up and see i can get rid of the stalling but def won't get rid or the turkey. How does the stock bpv install. I i can hook one of those up i might try that.

So if I am running my turbo xs like this I should "T" into the brake booster line? (Mind u I have a complete hose going to the hotpipe now)
K Soze, you have a perring fmic, are you running the dual setup. if so how did u run ur lines. I realize that i have the turbo xs bpv so i can use that with my ssqv. just need to know where to tap the bpv on the hard pipe. I wasn't sure if i use the hole for the line that goes to the engine on the intake. But thats before the turbo so it doesn't make sense that , that will work but it is after the maf. Any suggestions on doin the dual setup with the perrin fmic. I did not weld the flange for the ssqv, its using the stock location for the bpv.

I hate to sound like the village idiot but do any of you have a pic of which is the brake booster line. I just picked up an HKS SSQV and I will be running a dual setup but I din't want to cut any lines until I am positive I am tapping the right one. thanks in advance

That should be the link, if doesn't work, its in the how to section, how to kill your turkeys, pg 8. Its on the driverside. Can't really miss it. What intercooler setup to you have. looking to try to do this now with my perrin but i think i need to tap another hole for it. I might just do the coupler thing and relocate my maf.

Things i've done today, plus some pic, still have turkey
Ok today I tried to set up a dual system to kill my turkey. I'm not using the stock bpv but a turbo xs that was recirculating and for my bov I used the ssqv. I tried to split the opening in the perrin fmic for the bov into two. I did this by picking up a pvc t valve. I then put the ssqv on one side (vta) and the turboxs bpv recirculated on the other. My results still failed and have turkey. I took some pics with my camera phone so please be easy on the judging the quality.
My contraption
The setup is a little hard to see but its there the , ssqv is on the bottom or more to the right of the pic, and the red coupler is where the turboxs is connected. I mean i was able to vta on the hks without stalling so i mean something was working right. But yeah ajusted the hks from tight to loose, nothing. so I took the setup out and put just the turboxs back in for now.
Oh heres my brake booster tap for the one who wanted to see it.
