There's a HKS ssqv dump valve on my car and lately the noise off it is doing my head in, so I want to remove it. Do I have to block anything off when I take it off, or what do I have to do??

That simple, ya? Good stuff. You can have it Kav, no hassle. For a few bob and a go off the Silve30. :D Or a roll cage. :pQuote:

Don't fancy doin a cage again anytime soon but we'll sort somethin out. Ya gonna track your car as your mad for a cage :D:D
With a big bolt and strong clip, or with what? You know how mechanically clumsy I am. :D
I'd love to, but it's looking like the car is going to be sold soon. I'll talk to you on MSN about it sometime. :)
Bingo. Get your self a proper bung and a dublee clip. I blocked a boost pipe on a punto gt with a screwdriver to go for a pigeony drive, got about 400 yards n it blew off!Quote:

:p
I wouldnt risk it on standard twins, i like the standard sound, and as you said it should sound better when the bigger IC is on.....
....and better again when the car actually runs!
You dont need to take it off. Just pull the vacuum hose off the back and stick a bolt in it. Youl have your pigeon noise and the dump valve will block the intercooler pipe for you. Thats the way i have my 14 now.;)
Ok. I'll try that when I get out of bed. :D
hahahaha their really isnt any cunt workin in this country is there, no more than me self haha:oQuote:

Right so, the dump valve is no longer annoying me. :D The car feels like it has about 40bhp extra for some reason. Like it's a whole lot perkier and torquey on part throttle around town. Even the girlfriend noticed it was a good bit quicker which is saying something. Any reason as to why the car is quicker??

The weight of the BOV has been removed
The air entering the engine would be happier (i dont know how true this is cos i just made it up but) and also thinner knowing its not being used to make a psssssssssssstttttttt sound and generally piss off passers by
After that maybe you were on drugs/pissed and thought it was quicker?
You accidently got in the wrong car??
Dunno....
I kind of like where you're going with all of that, exept for the drink and drugs bit. I know it's dole day, but dugs are way too expensive for me. :D I was on the way home from acupuncture so maybe all the extra holes in me and the blood loss helped somehow???
Ah you see that was it. I knew there had to be a logical explanation. I hear Halfords are now selling stage 2 Accupunture upgrade kit, guaranteed 50+ hp, so I wouldn't bother with the doc the next timeQuote:

Anybody want to buy a HKS ssqv? It's chavtastic.
