Gott in Himmel!

My Porsche BOV has split in half!! Suspect a plastic valve is all I can say!

Anyone suggest a good one that doesn't make the car sound like it has a bad cold? :D

I have the FM one - you can make it quiet by either lifting off slowly, or by plumbing it's outlet into the turbo intake.

Of course you can always lift off quickly for a big "CHUFF" ... kids dig it (ok, only the boys) ;)

I had a look into the stock subaru idae and opted to get out of the ghetto!

I have been looking at the ssqv type valve from HKS or the Greddy type R.

I have Jimmy'd the valve up at the mo' and when I get the new one it's worth a laugh to take a pic and post it! :twisted:
