BOV/Diverter Valve

[GLI8989]

hey im new to vwvortex and im just trying to find a diverter/blow off valve doesn't matter which one just trying to find one and im gonna be putting it on a 05 GLI

The FAQ/DIY is a good place to start but I'll help you out.

If you must get a BOV, either get a genuine HKS SSQ from a reputable vendor like ECS Tuning or a hybrid valve that vents part and recirculates the rest.

If you go DV route, Forge is a good brand. I've heard a lot of good things about the Forge 007 valve or you could get the HKS SSQ and the recirc kit so you'll have your choice

Unfortunately, you have to pay to play. You could always go to an Audi dealer and get the stock 225hp TT DV, it's more durable than the stock 180hp version. But, I have this feeling that you are looking for some sound out of this.

yeah im trying to hear it more haha already purchased an exhaust and its on its way now so i was trying to get a decent sounding bov/diverter for my jetta now

[Jetta02AWP]

Get a short ram intake ~$30 on ebay or get a filter and clamp it to the MAF and you will hear the stock DV

this if you must have an aftermarket dv, check out the forge 008 and 007

[VOKESwagenGTI]

Im running the 008, and it sounds nice. it still makes the let off noise it just isn't as noticeable/obnoxious. I ran the hks ssqv for over a year and it comes with the insert that is very noticeable and obnoxious so if thats the route your goin for. but both valves are well known and good quality. Ps. diverters are generally cheaper.

I've had an HKS SSQ on my car for 9 years! Never had a problem with it. I have the recirc kit so I can change it up now and then. But, for the most part I leave it vented. I put one on my wifes beetle too, its an auto, but she has fun with it

APR R1. Thank me later

[GLI8989]

does the APR R1 sound nice?!

[ryanhobbs]

Oh yes. It sounds very manly unlike the BOV

[scirockalot8v]

a good diverter valve like the apr or forge 007 i think sound better than a bov. they have more of a long wooosh sound than a quick sppsshhh.

This. But do not buy it from the stealer, ecs carries them for about thirty or fourty dollars

[SATXBrokeGTI]

Forge Splitter valve cranked pretty much all the way closed personally, that plus my self made CAI sounds pretty darn good.

Diverter Valve

BOV

I want to ask when you need an uprated DV? Stage 2 tune? I understand the stock on does the job even with a stage 1 tune. Forge 008 or APR seem to be the best ones out there from what I can tell.
