GFB dv+ installed

Juss say'n

You basically destroy the stock BOV to install this. No big deal. The instructions sort of act like you should keep the stock parts, but to remove the part they tell you to remove, it's not likely to come off without breaking it. Just a "heads up".
Pretty cool and seems well made.

In your opinion, would the complete boomba racing replacement system BPV/BOV function any 'better' than this, even though it costs more, and entails a more complicated installation??

It's too soon for me to make a choice on that. I know this one it way way cheaper, and I like that. And by cheap, I don't mean low quality.

I'm not a huge boomba fan, but I really like the idea of the vaccum operated BOV. Would I pay $300 vs $150 ? No. Not if this works as well as it claims. (Back to work !! = me )

^^^OK, THANKS for the honest opinion.

to anyone thinking of buying one of these. Whooshmotorsports is a new vendor on the forum and has them for less than anyone else around. Check out the link.

Good call. Ordered mine this morning. Thanks for the heads up

11 pages later, still nothing! Does anyone have ANY logs that show ANY definitive proof that this thing actually helps??

11 pages? Good lord, son. Check your preferences. I am only on the beginning of page 3.

lol I've got 3 "before" logs I haven't pulled off the AP yet. This has taken a back seat to the intake I'm piecing together since just about every kit out isn't what I'm looking for. But I log a pull everyday, weather permitting. And I'll do so until I install it. I figure about a week or so.

 

[MS67]

LOL. Ok, 100+ posts...better?

A little.

It doesn't not work... Lol. Not my car, but I drove it to the scale... Cyborg39 installed and ready for a good tune

No doubt about it, the response over the normal cyborg is greatly improved.

I meant the diverter valve, not the Cyborg39. I'm looking for quantitative data that shows this will be an improvement over the stock DV.

You're welcome

I'm not one who's really into data logging every parameter on my car, but I will report on my impressions. Main thing being max boost since my stock BOV was leaking boost past 26.5psi.

I installed this valve on one today.... Being it's not mine, I can't beat on it to give anyone info.

I don't mind u beating on it, but with the tune being for the old cyborg, probably not a good idea

Not my car
My GF gets mad at me because I drive her CX9 so slow.
My fist gets its guts beat out, but if it's not mine, I want minimal risk of issues, lol. I did def want to know 100% what it weighed so when I start plugging in V-dyno stuff, we know we are at REAL WEIGHTS and not guess work. Prob put 12-16miles on it.
No datalogs needed to know it responds faster though.

I'm really hoping this BOV works out though. It's cheap enough for pretty much everyone to consider, and it's not loud/annoying.

You say annoying and I can agree to a point, but scaring pedestrians under an overpass with a BOV can be quite comical This one though I may go BPV

That's what an external wastegate dump and 2J race intake is for, lol
