This is how my 1st gen mistu BOV sounds like...

holy crap doode...i just played that on my comp. i wasn't expecting such a bassy response from revving the engine and the BOV going off
 
I put the mic too close to the bov, that thing really blow off. Feels like a hurricane has passed when it goes off :)
 
oh yeah, gotta congratulate you on your crazy custom install of your FMIC. that was one helluva effort. hope your MAF doesn't get f'd while it's setup like that. i thought i was having a hard time trying to get my MBC to get setup...guess i knoe i'll have to get some help when i get my FMIC
 
i gotta ask...how did you get your BOV to blow off when you revved your engine while the mic was next to the BOV ? i can barely get the BPV to go off if i rev it to around 6K

Get an intake of some sort...the stock airbox muffles the BPV.
 
And the nice thing about this BOV is it only cost me $75!! There's always going to be some pressure in the system even at vacuum. By the sound of things my car build a lot of pressure in vac :)

Thanks guys... you can't imagin how relieved I am now that the FMIC is on and functioning.
 
def the 1st gen dsm bov is a nice upgrade ..i think they can take a good amount of boost also....unless u want flashly brand names the 1g dsm bov is a nice bov to grab up..if u compare the type s and 1g bov..they are identical in outer appearance...wouldnt be suprises to see the same inside.
 
how did u get your car to build boost during idle. thats what it sounds like to me. my car will not do it no matter what i try.
 
That's sweet. I have a 1st Gen DSM BOV just laying around, I had it on my old MX-6, I need to find a way to get in on my MSP!

Like he said, you will always be able to build up pressure, maybe not boost, but there is pressure there. If you have any BPV vented to the atmosphere on any turbo car you will be able to get it to "blow off" by revving in neutral.


**Maybe not if you have a big ass turbo:D **
 
mine blows off at idle, gotta take it to redline though. I bet it sounds better :D haha jk. It sounds great man.
