    its not super loud, alot louder than a DV, but not as loud as a HKS BOV

    it works great on 1.8t's, or if you use 2, on a B5 S4.

    This one is basically new, we bought two to play with on a 911tt, but decided to go with different BOVS.

    So we stuck one in a 1.8t, and this one if left over.

    BOV's are no no's in Audi's simple as that. You will mess something up with them.

    I'd recomend trying to sell them at a jap car tuner site. Should be an easy sale there.

    Install is simple as swapping your stock BPV out for this hybrid. Everything is straightforward.

    Thats simply not true

    This is not a BOV, its a hybird.

    Part BOV, part DV, its run on numerous Audis, with no problems, including mine for just a short while before i sold the 1.8t.

    Which way do these install?


    the bottom goes towards Intercooler...and the side outlet goes to Turbo?

    I know DVs\BPV's can work both ways....do BOV's work both ways as well?

    I have one too, but I got mine for $160 when everyone was saying not to get one.

    I never had a problem with it and it sounds great. Still running it

    It's a nice buy, but I would wait until the prices come down...

    oh yeah...BTW did I mention it sounds awsome
    and I have mine on the lowest setting. You can barely hear it under normal driving conditions, but when you crank up the rpm's everyone will know you've got a turbo

    it's a good device .. the stealth one is even better with removable tips .. i used to run it on my Audi but i went a different direction and got a real BOV.

    I was pretty satisfied with it, no codes or cells. Bump for u!

    DO IT!!!

    a lot of ppl will say its rice or its stupid to have anything other than a 100% recirc DV...

    but i dont really care what they say...all i know is that with the GFB my car is SO MUCH MORE FUN to drive...

    i havnt experienced any loss of power or anything like that with my GFB. i dont have an AF ratio gauge so i dont know whether im running rich or lean or whatever... but as of right now...i LOVE IT!!!

    as far as holding boost or leaking boost is concerned... i have a boost gauge and i tested my OEM DV and the GFB... both were the same...

    i say go for it!!!

    Hey Evil...ask Bobby (A4Tuuurbo) he has one on his B6. He was at waterfest, I'm suprised you didn't hear it.
