Think your putting the cart before the horse, as far as I know the only mod for the tc is a sc's universal exhaust .

well your "first upgrade" is gonna make you run pig rich since your MAF is calculating that air that is being shot into the atmosphere. get a tune and then get a BOV

even if there were bov's available for the ss/tc, why would it be considered an upgrade?

i suggest doing more research before you consider doing anything. though i'm assuming this thread is a joke

Honestly I dont know what a blow off vavle is, I know what a blow off valve is. But as of right now there arent any aftermarket BOV's available for the SS/TC. Hahn has 3" exhaust and a tuner, but nobody has a BOV yet.

tial BOV best for keeping your motor safe, holds however much boost you can throw at it, sounds good too, but double the price of most others (i use this BOV)
hks super sequential 2nd best for keeping you safe, holds up to 35 safely with the upgraded spring, sounds the best IMO, same price as other big names

And then we go back to the original comments. What good is a blow-off valve upgrade if it is just recirculation?

Only problem with all that is nobody has came out with a BOV for our cars.

i really doesnt do anygood for his car except for sound, you really dont need a aftermarket BOV until you start doing major ugrades, or a aftermarket turbo

to the op, i know hks sells a universal mount which makes you splice the ic pipe like this
original,---------------
spliced w/o mount,---- ----
spliced w/ mount,----!!!----
how safe does that really look to you?

You arent getting what Im saying. YOu arent going to even HEAR an aftermarket BOV with it sending the air it "blows off" back into the intake.

The only mods out that I know of for the SS/TC performance wise are

1. Several Cat back exhausts (hahn, etc..)
2. 3" Downpipe (Synapse)
3. Hahn PPC Tuner
4. Hard piping kit (Synapse)
5. CAI (in he works from Turbo Tech racing)

why are we still talking about BOV when there isn't one on this car, it is a recirculating valve no air ever leaves the intake system
