Applicable to: '90 - '97 '99 + 1.6 liter 1.8 liter
Metal-bodied blow-off valve that uses a twin-piston pull-type design that is unique in the world.
This valve is a direct bolt-on for the FM/BEGI valves when using the Gen.2 DSM mounting kit. The valve works very well, but would flutter a bit on low-boost vents. I rated this valve third in my little informal BOV comparison test (behind the AVO and the Bailey DV30, but above the HKS, Mitsubishis, DSMs, Bailey EVO and Bosch).
The valve is the most versatile BOV on the market. It can vent to the atmosphere either very loudly, loudly or silently. It can also be routed back to the intake. It is also fully adjustable via a nut and screw adjuster on the top of the unit. I replaced mine with an AVO BOV because it fit my BBR turbo setup better.
