Blitz BOV
 
Hi all

I have a Blitz BOV on my 1995 Impreza, can anyone advise if it will fit a V4 Impreza? Are they generic across the models providing its for a certain scooby i.e. Classic, Blobeye etc?

Cheers

Is it a recirculating type? if not, stick with the recirc one.

Yes it will fit a V4 impreza,you may just need to change the supporting pipe that it connects to.

Errrrrrrrrr, to avoid overfuelling that VTA valves cause? And the borewash, possible valve damage, diluted oil, and possible cat damage that comes from overfuelling?

Shouldn't be an issue if u compensate for it when its remapped.

Is it recommended to have a recirc BOV on any classic regardless of year?

Just wondering what to use on my 97 RA.

"Never had a problem"..........as far as you know? :confused:

Look, guys, I'm not gonna get into an argument with you over it, it's your car, you use what you want, BUT:

What do Subaru fit?
What do Prodrive stick with?
What do any respected tuners advise?

If there was ANYTHING to be gained from a VTA valve, would the people above not fit them, or advise us to?

But no-one does.

And if they aren't compensated for during mapping, (and I remain to be convinced you can entirely compensate), then the problems above will DEFINITELY be there, whether you know it.........or not;)

Would a respected mapper like to comment?
JGM?
