HKS SSQ blow off valve or Recirc valve ?
 
Ive had my '96 wrx for a few weeks and to be honest im sick of the HKS SSQ blow off valve(must be getting old !)

Im thinking of replacing it with a recirculating valve but have a couple of questions.

1) Im running 1.4 bar,will it be safe to have a recirculating valve instead of the blow off valve ?

2) I have a Hybrid front mounted intercooler and hard pipes. The HKS blow off valve is fitted to one of the hard pipes with a short piece of silicone hose. If I replace it with a recirculating valve,how do I fit the valve ?

Do u want to sell the hks valve or swap it for a ARC blow off valve(alot quieter than the HKS)??

Will it be ok for the car if I just remove the HKS blow off valve and just blank it off so I have nothing at all ?

Yeh,but as I have a front mount intercooler with hard pipes,where do I fit the recirculated air side of the dump valve to ?
