Please help!! HKS SSQV BOV Install..

[foubees]

Can someone please point out a write up or installation guide for the HKS SSQV? Bought the kit from SU.com....I can't seem to find a decent write up anywhere.......I get the general idea I just want to make sure i'm doing it right.


Any and all help is appriciated! I want to try and install it by tonight.

Thanks!

Really... just place the tubes where they fit..... really can't go wrong. The only hard annoying part was getting the damn thing into the flange adapter. 2 bolts, and reconnect tubes.

 

[foubees]

Yeah.... I just got done installing it.

Me and my buddy did it in less than an hour.

The C-ring wasn't even an issue, lol. And no clearance issues so i'm happy

At first I ran it in recirc. But then VTA cause it was tempting...lol. So i'll keep it there. Next comes the AEM CAI!

the car is not going to run good at idle with it VTA'D unless u get it tuned to run that way..

+1 on that. its gonna backfire like crazy, idle super rough, and stutter a bit as well..

 

[foubees]

So I've noticed. Eventually it will be tuned to run better with VTA.

just dont get to many mods to fast like it did and now im not even able to find a map for my car

Majorly disagree, sorry:

Unless you can a recirculation block off cap as well. Just got my hks ssq, running vta and it idles like stock. Can't even tell. I think the cap is like $10 from SU or PG. Go get one. Never attempt vta without one. GReddy valves still ran badly, but hks is the way to go (rei)

 

[foubees]

I agree. The only thing i've noticed so far is the occasional backfire. ^_^.

Im ordering my CAI in a couple days. So to be a thread hi-jacker, but what do you guys reccomend the most? Even though i could use the search function, and current reccomendations? ty!

 

[Deadman]

if you have the hks the car will run fine in VTA. Cant say that for any other bov though.

 

[foubees]

Oh and -1 for installing a BOV in the middle of the night....didn't have a recirculation hose cap....So i improvised and but a chair leg stopper over it and zip tied it =]. Sticks out if you're looking for it but it works great so far, made of thick rubber.

Mounting the flange to the HKS was a PITA. I must of tried for an hour cusing the whole time. Eventually had to get my dad to help me.

 

[foubees]

Yeah, I installed with a buddy. Best decision that i've ever made lol.

Btw Quick 6, you're car is gorgeous. I'm trying to find the time to get mine as hawt, or more importantly the money. You love your speed6 so far? worth all the time and money?

I'm leaning more towards an evo =[ just being honest....

 

[Qwik6]

Yea I love it since its different and the only one around that is modified. There is a guy about an hour from me that is much more modified than I am though. The car can be a pain sometimes though. Sometimes I wish I had went with a brand new speed3 but the awd is a very nice pro of having the 6. I plan on buying the AP from a guy selling his. I hope it wakes this car up especially the top end. I had a Dodge Durango hemi walk me from a race from a 15-60. I dont usually race but the extra power is nice when its needed.

Speaking of evos I had a kid in one today stop and just stare at my car when I drove by. He must of been wondering what I was driving

 

[foubees]

lol. Yeah...I defiantly love my speed 6, no doubt. But monday I have to take it into the shop because of a random power steering fluid leak? kinda crazy that stuff never usually leaks unless I ran it into something without noticing, lol.


But yeah, i get a bonus check here pretty soon so I will be adding a Cobb AP. I've been driving mi madre's 2007 Chevy Malibu SS. I miss my MS6 =[.

 

[djmarkian]

Yah especially with that grill, noone would know what your driving, damn I miss my AE grill. s*** broke off while doing 100+mph...

 

[Qwik6]

lol. I dont understand how every1s blow off. Ive been up to 130 and mine didnt come off and ive had it on for over a year.

 

[djmarkian]

I had an accident and I think it made the mounts weaker, sorry to thread jack. I will get another grill but I think ill get the ebay one lol...

No, there are many that have much more than what you have including myself. Go make the time to have it road tuned or dyno tuned.

Search button is your friend.

This thread has officially been hijacked...i'm looking at ATP turbo setups for my MS6. I want to get one, and possibly very soon. I want to be able to eat up my friends probe by this summer...you may laugh when I say probe, but he's setting up a t3/t4 turbo on his 2.2 liter '89 probe. Redamndiculous.

He just got his forged pistons in and his cars' completely apart.

So in the next month I need fast, and fast =].
