HKS SSQV 2 question

j1330i · 01-26-2008, 03:29 AM

hey guys, i just installed the hks ssqv 2 and i was wondering if anyone with this bov has had the same results as me. it seems that my bov at full boost goes off twice, theres first a quick high pitch burst then a second after theres a longer swoooosh. i used to have the ssqv 1 on my old sti and i never experienced 2 chirps of the bov only 1 at anytime. can anyone explain why it does this?

i use to have a Tial BOV on my G35 and it did the same thing. Under low boost it was one woosh sound and under high boost it chirped and then a woosh. its perfectly normal i think its just how the BOV is.

The HKS Super Sequential Blow-Off Valve (SQV) is a dual stage pull type relief valve. The SQV is engineered to initially open the small primary valve at light throttle and load conditions, then sequentially opens the secondary valve for additional relief capacity under high boost and load conditions.
It incorporates both a small primary valve for ultra quick activation, along with a larger secondary valve for additional discharge capacity. Thats why you hear both at higher boost but only one at low.
