robwrx Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 I can't decide weather to or not put a bov on my wrx always liked the sound. But keep being told not to put one on my car cuz it makes the car run uneasy is this true?
stants Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Depends some cars run ok and others run poorly, new age cars suffer less. Maybe get one that can vent to atmosphere or be turned to recirculate if your having problems
robwrx Posted January 19, 2015 Author Posted January 19, 2015 Thnks do you have one on yours. I want to make it sound loud an should I get it mapped after having one fitted :)
stants Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 No mate as I've got a v3 engine so my valve lives half way down the pipework from the intercooler instead of on the ic like newer ones. The hks ones seem to be good and people put them on without mapping but they cost a bit. Ideally a map when fitting it is the best option as it will be dumping air that the ecu expects to go back into the engine. Are you having any more mods done ? If so I'd get everything together install and map on same day 1
robwrx Posted January 19, 2015 Author Posted January 19, 2015 Yeah mate I want a cobb sf induction kit an a good exhaust system won't do nothing else after that. Just trying to make it look like a monster first. Can't believe the price of an sti spoiler /:(
stants Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 There's a place in leeds called creative auto that sell high level copies with an LED break light in for about 150 I think maybe worth a look
robwrx Posted January 19, 2015 Author Posted January 19, 2015 Sound that's well better than £275 + getting it painted an. Fitted .
Gambit Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 As said above some cars don't like them at all and makes them run really bad, others will be fine both mine in the garage have them work with no problems. You will get some people that think it's chavy too. These people need to sell up and get Jaguar Xtype in my opinion as there not car enthusiasts just moaning old men :D 1
robwrx Posted January 19, 2015 Author Posted January 19, 2015 Lol I consider myself as a bit of a chav :) I just want to make sound really loud to **** off my moaning neighbour lol 1
Gambit Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 I posted this on facebook but think it has a place in this thread.
robwrx Posted January 19, 2015 Author Posted January 19, 2015 Lol what type of exhaust system is that :)
Gambit Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 I'm not sure I just picture it as a nurspec but I know it isn't lol :D
bowthruster Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Nurspec........Now there Nice exhausts.. 1
Gambit Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 I'd love one I keep looking for 2nd hand ones around the £250 I don't mind paying that but new as much as I like them is a bit too much for even me :( 1
bowthruster Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 All the best things are expensive mate :(
Gambit Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 All the best things are expensive mate :( Yeah I agree I know it's a great product too and built to last but I only want it for the sound :)
robwrx Posted January 19, 2015 Author Posted January 19, 2015 ive manage to put a pic on my profile ill get a pic of the front lip an rear diffuser on this weekend hopefully :D 1
Gambit Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Very nice mate look good I can see why it's a hard choice with the grills and spoiler now :) I'd still go spoiler 1st.
robwrx Posted January 19, 2015 Author Posted January 19, 2015 yeah that's what im thinking just need one for right price. stants told me about place in leeds but there out of stock at the moment I think with buying it and getting it painted im looking at about £300. need to have a look at sum breakers sum where no any good ones
Gambit Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Haha I'll have a look around for you mate. I would have asked someone but after the response I had from trying to give a helping hand just less than 2 hours ago I won't send anyone to them. But basically a black one if you can get it. did you want genuine as they seem to be about £300, non genuine seems to go a bit cheaper. Seen them be as low as £150
robwrx Posted January 19, 2015 Author Posted January 19, 2015 if I can get a black one then its a bonus. I dnt really wnt to pay more then about £250. I was looking at the carbon fiber ones but I cant make my mind if they look crap? 1
Gambit Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 I think with your car or silver looks good imho. But I'm pretty sure one of us can get you one with in that price :)
robwrx Posted January 19, 2015 Author Posted January 19, 2015 nice one mate be much appreciated. where is that jap show at that u posted
Gambit Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Japshow or japfest ? Japshow is Santa Pod and Japfest is Castle Combes. Then later in the year I'll post Japfest 2 which is Donington park. but in all honesty Castle Combs is a brilliant event. Top Gear was there last year. unfortunately I didn't make it but Boot's and a few others made the stand.
robwrx Posted January 19, 2015 Author Posted January 19, 2015 I think I might do donington bit closer to me lol. Never been to one what u actually do?
