i run the forge 004 on my 98.5, which has no MAP sensor. you only run slightly rich for a very short amount of time, which i doubt will **** anything up. if you have a MAP sensor than you wont even run rich after a day or 2. just make sure you pick a BOV that is closed at idle

 

Hi all... I am new. Please be patient with me. I saw this topic and I figured I need asistance and maybe you all can help me. I purchased a knock off Greddy s type BOV and installed it. However, it will hold while I am idling btu, while i am driving (accelerating) I can hear it leak. It is venting to atmoshere and I have the recirculating hose corked. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I swapped it with the stock diverter. Oh.. I have a 2002 Audi A4 1.8T Quattro. I would greatly appreciate you help in this. Should I buy a new BOV or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance.

 

my bad, i guess they dont have all the cars parts setup the same. Go under MKIV 1.8t and they will be there.

 

if it was bad, my car would of been f'ed up along time ago. Mine has run for about 1yr now w/o a single problem. It will work, just wont be as loud with < 10psi

 

Import tuner did a story on ebay parts and who to identify the knock offs. They took apart one of those bov's and the diaphram is garbage. You need to ditch it and get a appropriate bov/dv. Like said above, me and most people here all use the proven 004 by forge motorsports.

 

I read an article that the internal parts should be oiled. Once oiled the BOV will work fine. I took it apart and oiled the whole thing but, I haven't had a chance to put it back on. Too cold to work on the car. But, can it be that I am installing incorrectly. It works great when the car is idling on the ramps but, not while accelerating. I don't know if the vacuum line is doing what it suppose to do. But, I forgot to mention that the BOV has a tube on top for the small vacuum line and it has another tube sticking out under the top tube. I went to Greddy's web site to see the installation procedure and they said to ignore the bottom tube. I am not sure if that tube suppose to be connected to something and maybe it is causing the BOV not to hold while accelersting.

piston based bov/dv get lubed, diaphram bov/dv's dont [sm=headbang.gif] Like i said before, throw it away, it is garbage and not ment to be used on a 1.8t.

BTW, the bottom line if taped in will allow the valve to work faster.

 

i love my hks ssqv.. and i run it on atmospheric and runs great with my speed tuning chip
