Hahn racecraft tune and blow off valve.
Have had my mind set on getting a bov from Hahn racecraft along with one of their custom tunes lately. I've already got their charge air piping and cai kits so I feel the need to get the bov. Thoughts ?

you want a bov go with HKS, Tial, or ZZP. remember though if you go bov you have to get re tuned and to do it properly you should do a maf relocate and that means getting new cold side piping. If you want to the blow off louder just get the forge bpv.

there stuff is ok. the turbo kit they offer is nice. but their charge pipes rust and when your comparing them to ZZP and other companies they arent even close. some people like their stuff and others just stay away because ZZP has the best name in the business for our cars for a reason. plus hahn's prices are high. you could have got a Tial bov for a lot cheaper. their intercooler is $200 more then zzp lol. the list goes on man. thats why not many people buy hahn, with a company like zzp around

His lingo makes me think hes a young kid. If your not relocating your maf or recirculating i really dont care how good you think your buddy is at tuning hes doing it the wrong way unless he advises you to relocate your maf or recirculate. If hes street tuning you or 450 bucks id get some new friends.

Let me explain it to you like this....... point blank.
If your venting to atmosphere you NEED a maf relocate. End of story. The car spikes rich because metered air leaves the system. There is no tuning around this because you cannot change what is happening.
Now if you are using a recirculating blow off valve you do not need a maf relocate because the system always stays closed and the metered air remains in the system.
Theres no debating this topic.
Ive beaten this topic to death. I have 12 legal years of automotive experience and ive been wrenching since i was 10. I have a total of nearly 7 years with ecotec based platforms Ive been on a top fuel team, nitro powered nostalgia drag teams, i road race and have a drag car and i currently build chassis for a living. Just to give you an idea of a little bit of my background.

Thanks for the info. I spent a few hours reading about recirculating the air and came to the conclusion there was no point in spending the extra money so i just got the standard bov. How would you relocate the maf sensor? And wouldn't you be able to fine tune it so that the setup stays the same? The guys over at Hahn rarely respond and never give people like me a detailed explanation of things like this unless you have years of experience like yourself...
