SSQV III - something you may or may not know!

[jdmbeat]

So..... today I put in 2 new SSQV III's on my GTR and behold, you can actually run them venting to atmosphere without any issues! they hold boost well with no idle issues at all! I will post vid up when I take some, but they sound incredible. Only running stock boost so the small valve is opening and not the "flutter" valve but man they are wicked.

My friend has these on his RX7. It does sound amazing.

Very nice! Looking forward to hearing them!

obviously

the SSQV is a piston type BOV, instead of a common diaphram design,
which means it absolutely needs vaccum to open (throttle closed),
without vaccum it is impossible to open even at very high pressures, thus the valve can't "leak" boost at higher levels

Thanks for clearing that up frankiman, good to know!

[markc32]

did u use adapters and where did u get them? or they made specific ssqv3 for the r32 gtr?

[jdmbeat]

just welded the flanges onto the stock piping and they fit universal. really easy install got a guy to tig the flanges on for cheap so they were not an issue
