TurboXS Hybrid BOV Installed!

well i was planning on getting the forge bpv but are these turboxs hybrids any bttr with sound/performance? As loud as the turbosmart? (lol2)
 
I took some sound recordings today, although they didnt turn out real well. I use photobucket for pics, anyone have a site I can upload to??

you can upload videos to photobucket too, just takes a bit longer than upl;oading the picture.

do you have a youtube account to upload videos on? I know you have cardomain, I just found out that you can upload videos on cardomain, you might be able to try that
 
UHATEIT: but its sound, not video....

LReyes66: anything is going to hold boost better than the leaky stock one, aka "better" performance to a point. As far as volume... there is no hybrid louder than the turbosmart, but vtas are the loudest by far... and even I am considering something vta

ahh i see, you didnt make a video eh? how does it sound? Is it louder than the recirculated video I made of mine? I read you said ti was about just as loud but not sure if that was as loud as the vta or the recirculated video i made. Eager to hear yours!
 
I dont have anything that can make a video :\
I'm sure its not as loud as complete vta, but with intake it is definitly pretty loud. Because there are 2 smallish vta holes instead of one big vta hole, it gives more of a whip crack and high speed air escaping sound while most 100% vta give more of a deeper louder whoosh from the larger single opening.

it's like the difference of blowing through a straw vs toilet paper tube
 
damn turbo smarts are twice the price of the forge :(

hey check out my thread that I made about the ebay knockoff greddy type-s that I have. I have sound clips in there as well about this you might like it. I have pics of what you need to buy and 4 clips on the sound including vta and drivebys. Works great for me and is pretty cheap to buy

it's $60 for everything including the mounting adapter. Less than 1/6 the price of the turbosmart and less than 1/3 the price of the turbo xs hybrid!

works like a charm! Just adjust the screw on the top to your desired setting. According to lestat who has the hybrid 50/50 turbo xs he says it sounds about the same. Check it out you might like it.

I have had it on for a month now and no issues.
 
what vta are you thinking about going with?

I would LOVE the GReddy type-s and would probably buy the knock off if it sounded like the original. Might go with the HKS sometime in the future

No more imitation ebay parts for me. I have bought many cheap and knock-off honda parts in the past and almost every one has come back to bite me in the ass! I told myself, only quality products from now on. When you have 2 sets of headers (for $50) in a row not fit right, you muscle up the $400 for some DC Sports ones ;)

I bought ebay test pipes for my 350z on there a y-pipe and catback system and it all fit well. Just the luck of the draw I guess

I wish I did tho have the REAL type-s I has found one on ebay for $60 shipped! But I saw it and in the process of clicking the buy it now some other douche hit it and bought it, so I was like 3 seconds too late. I'd just be worried on running VTA, my car ran terrible like that. I had to give it more gass to keep the idle up so it would not die on me
 
well im getting either the forge bpv or turboxs hybrid .. because i just want a bov/bpv that i know wont leak on me sooner or later... id like the sound but dont feel like playing more then 250 for that lol...


between the forge and turbo xs which is louder?

oh and i saw that theres a turboxs bpv... how is that
 
turbo xs is gonna be louder because its half and half while the forge is just a bypass valve.... and personally i just dont care for the forge "super mario coin block" sound

I hear the turbo xs dedicated blow-off is VERY loud, but I haven't heard anything about their bypass
 
lol i get 1 coin every time i let off the gas >_<


oh and i saw somewere that u got a metro ms3 with powdercoated rims? mind if i see a pic cuz i have a metro gray as well and i can decided between black or gunmetal
