Nice BOV you got there, Slim Musk
@Ishaan Braylen no way, a 5 day old account supporting a month old account.. gtfo.
Thank you! Just did the install today, followed your video and works perfectly. I removed the axle, was replacing that anyway, and it gave me a lot more room to work. That top screw is a beast to reach. Nice work!
This man knows how to make a car tutorial vid. Good stuff my guy
I was between dualport or plum back bov , I went on with plum back which significantly increased boost while making flutter sounds with out the pssshhh , I’m stock tune and the turbo sounds nice can’t wait to tune it and change my intercooler and pipes for better airflow
nice video, im also running a CTS BOV on my tuned MK6 R. i love how hybrid BOVs work. when building boost and slowly letting off the throttle it produce this amazing sounding flutter as it attempts to hold boost while slowly letting it out so youcan build boost quick if acceleration is needed. other than that it has a nice sounding PSSH sound at high boost pressures. wish i had some extra $$ for some nice cameras and mics. i dont like being loud with my car exhaust wise so the hybrid bov system is a good way for stealth mode. if any one wants for noise i would get and HKS with and adapter
Thanks, I know exactly what your talking about with the turbo flutter. I get it mostly when modulating the gas and clutch to reverse or when rev match downshifting at speed.
@@SavageGTI I've been playing with my car a little bit... I've notice this car just revving the motor just to hear them force induction noises doesn't sound appealing at all. The only thing I would do to mask that is with launch control...and not trying to spend over 500$ for a crackle pop tune. The car only sounds good at load on the road.
Pop you hood, start the car, make sure the car is warmed up, put the a/c on and fan on max, turn on your high beams and all interior lights, and at last roll the window down and rev up and down to 4k rpm -5k rpm while slow letting off the accelerator, it just sounds amazing , Thank me later 😁
Wish I had some cameras and mics so y'all can hear what I'm hearing 😁😁
Yeah at wide open throttle higher rpms under load is a totally different sound, I might try a 2.5in catback exhaust with my 3in DP in the future. low rpm coasting sounds like crap, unless on downhill coasting when engine is cold you get so many pops. Also try being in a gear too high for your speed but still build boost then quickly snap off the gas should get a loud brap.
@@SavageGTI yea idk why it pops so much more during cold starts lol
If you put your diverter valve connector into the new boost control valve, then where did you put the boost control valve connector or what did you plug it into? You have me confused and I watch that part 10 times.
999th sub! Congrats on (nearly) 1000 subs
Nice video thanks. Hope to do this to my A3
So I have a stock Passat other than CTS cold air intake and CTS downpipe so should I get the CTS blow off valve or their diverter valve
What exhaust system is that? Or what do you have done to it?
great content,bigg up!
I'm going to make this very clear there is no world that exists where the blow off valve sound is annoying if it is annoying to you then you need to just drive a Prius
I wanted to hate this video but you won me over my man. Great vid. You made me laugh twice. Rice-ness indeed 🤣
Will this fit my MK7 1.4L TSI?
Mine just became loose so it’s throwing the p0299 code, gets loose over time but yeah that’s the issue with me 😢
Actually the stock plastic diverter brakes all the time, more often if you have a better map like Revo or Apr
Mine broke on the stock tune or maybe the 20min of being stage 1 before a major boost leak and low idle issues. All boost leaks are fixed and I run eurodyne stage 1.
Thanks gonna insall it tomorrow 💕
Is there any major differences u notice after u replace with a BOV? Like boost leak or anything?
Not at all. No difference in feeling and if anything it can hold more boost
When replacing the dv with the bov, did all 3 bolts match up on the bov?
Yes perfect fit, the kit comes with longer bolts than stock if I remember. The top bolt is tougher to get just feel arround and wiggle it till you get it
My question, which you didn't cover, the set screw when you put it in the t boost (connected to the manifold) did yours go all the way down to the last thread? Mine does not.
Not totally clear what your asking, there is no set screw. However if talking about the boost tap going into the intake manifold try rotating it back and forth so both gaskets go inside.
@@SavageGTI here is a link for installation instructions showing that screw www.dropbox.com/sh/rytm0gb1ty9qr49/AAAZI6vTKE4WU0gz7TkP9v25a/CTS Installation Guide - CTS-BV-0009 - CTS-DV-0002.pdf?dl=0
Doesn’t switching from diverter to blow off valve decrease performance? Sounds nice though
Not necessarily, the concern would be throttle response getting back into boost but the KO3 is small enough it doesn't take much to hit boost 3k rpm spools it. Plus Blow off valves can hold more boost.
I have a go fast bit DV relocation kit. Would I be able to install it without removing the DV relocation kit
I would think so. This BOV fits directly into the stock location same bolt flange. The relocation should also work with the stock flange setup. You just have to run the vacuum hose from the intake manifold to the BOV
Would this mess up anything with pressure or anything related to the boost
If installed correctly, it will be just fine. It's a closed system and it still works great to this day. I'm running a Eurodyne Stage 1 tune holding 18psi through a pull with good throttle response
So the boost tap is threaded inside and I got the same one as you, it came with a gold set screw. I screwed it down has maybe 6 threads left. I've seen many videos and I've seen people open up their bov with the screw and never explain it. Am I missing something? Thanks for your answer btw
I got it. It is a brass plug if you were also installing a catch can here is the instructions for just the boost tap. www.dropbox.com/sh/rytm0gb1ty9qr49/AABoLJ46VObS1mhkGCV-quTAa/CTS%20Installation%20Guide%20-%20CTS-HW-002.pdf?dl=0
the brass screw is essentially a delete plug for the pcv system. Some catch cans remove the pcv hoses so the brass fitting would block the boost tap off preventing a boost leak.
@@SavageGTI ok that helps a lot thanks man appreciate it
Awesome video.Sounds like HKS SSQ!!!😯 You have any issues, after a year?
No problems still runs strong today holds 18-21psi on a Eurodyne Stage 1 tune
Is the boost tap part included with the bov ? I’m ordering it rn but it doesn’t seem to come with the bov…
Make sure you're buying the kit. I don't think they sell just the valve but it's been years since I've bought mine
Hey my revision D broke the same way the grey plastic had that nipple piece broken through and it was stuck open when I made boost I could hear it blowing out of the diverter hella loud sounded like wastegate chatter I though my turbo was cooked just replaced it and we where all good thinking about going to a blowoff now
You might be good with the new one but I didn't want it to break again after the oem one went too. Plus I wanted the blow off sounds. BOV still works great today
@@SavageGTI that’s sounds good I hear a lot of dudes have problems with the diverter so I think im gonna go blowoff I’m about to get a CTS intake so I’m gonna have some good turbo noises but that neck snapping blowoff is what I want 😭
I just installed this. Does yours blow off kinda slow, almost like a slow hissing noise?
It can under really low boost. But shouldn't do it normally
Does tapping it into the manifold make it produce the noise? I have the same blow off on my GLI but it’s completely silent, the instructions made me t off the brake booster.
Any vacuum line should work. They should all experience the same pressure. Check if you plumbed the BOV correctly.
A diverter valve is what most turbocharged vehicles use stock. It vents to the intake pre-turbo and is silent. A blow-off valve vents to atmosphere and makes noise.
was wondering if all blow off valves are universal, are there only certain ones that fit mk5 gtis?
There are only certain ones that fit the mk5 do to the mounting location and flange. They are designed to be the same shape and size of the diverter valve. If you're into custom fab and wanted a universal BOV like the HKS that you can find on a lot of JDM cars you could make a block off plate to stock location then cut in and weld a new flange that works for the new BOV to the intercooler pipe. It's like a turbo, you cant just put any turbo on anything without having the right flange on the exhaust manifold.
How’s your car running? Is it still working good? I was thinking about buying this one but I’m not sure which one to go with. GFB Diverter Valve DV+ Volkswagen TSI/TFSI w/Pierburg Diverter Valve
I never had a problem with my BOV. It all depends on sound and how loud you want it to be.
I still have my GTI but I've kept it in my garage for the last year. Replaced altinator, starter, 02 sensor put a new exhaust on it but that got ripped off on train tracks. needs bearings a Throttle body new battery old car problems and a money pit lol.
hello i have a jetta tsi 211hp the engine is a little different. My question is… can I pull the vacuum from the hydrovac?
Not sure what you mean by hydrovac but you could look for a boost tap for your car that could be inline with the pcv or find any existing vacuum line and get a barbed T fitting
Okay thaks
Could i run a diverter valve spacer at the same time as one of these BOVs?
That would be pretty redundant and maybe not enough space or long enough bolts. The BOV is a stand alone system that vents boost into the air. It would replace the diverter valve and spacer and do the same job.
It's in the same spot, just to remove the spacer if you want to use this bov
i just tried installing mine and it doesn’t fit entirely flush, i can see light thru a gap between the turbo and the blowoff valve, tried it on another exact same turbo and same thing, i have the engine entirely out since i’m doing some extreme repairs so i can see that light clearly.
Is it the right part for the right engine? If there's a gap that's a big boost leak. My car holds 18psi consistent with Eurodyne tune and still use the same BOV
I'd email the company or call them. Maybe there's an answer
What’s the link for this bov also do you still have the same Megan exhaust system on?
Yes my exhaust set up is Megan Racing Drift Spec Catback with an ebay Catless Downpipe www.ctsturbo.com/cart/products/CTS_TURBO_2_0T_BOV_BLOW_OFF_VALVE_KIT_EA113_EA888_1-4775-568.html
It said unavailable :(
If I install the bov on my gti with a cold air intake do you think it will make the tutututu sound?
It does to a certain extent. I have this BOV plus the nuespeed intake. I can get a flutter sound engaging reverse uphill modulating the throttle and clutch but your not going to get a big turbo 2jz with a HKS sound
I’ve seen a dude put a ko4 in his gti and it fluttered and shit I didn’t think gti’s could make that noise 😂
Mine flutters with JUST AN CAI. No BOV etc the flutter can be achieved with a adjustable BOV. With a thighter spring OR adjustable knob on the top. Which can be set to 50/50 etc.
Just disconnect the bov and it will make the “stututu” sound
is the red spring you get a replacement
I don't remember I just run the one it came with. The car holds 18-21psi with a eurodyne tune
What kind of exhaust is on that....sounds nice
In this video it is a 3in catless downpipe to 3in Megan racing drift spec exhaust. No muffler just a tiny resonator.
Hey man, I saw you still reply to these comments. I have a 2013 GLI Stage 1+ Unitronic. I bought this a few months ago and could not get it to work at all. Pretty sure I installed it correctly, but I had the issue of massive blow off and a lack of boost regeneration making my tune useless. It lost all power and if I put my foot to the floor, it had no acceleration and just a huge build up of boost with a large blow off. Should I reflash my car after or any suggestions to fix this? I'd love to get it working on my car.
Did you buy the correct one for the year of your car? It may also be an issue with the plumbing of the vacuum lines to the valve. Seems like its open when it needs to be shut. BOV's should be able to hold more boost that stock diverter valves
@@SavageGTI I believe so. 2.0 FSI/TSI for the appropriate years
@@AndrewSpur73 the FSI ended mid 2007
@@SavageGTI I promise it’s the right one haha. It’s the 2.0T Atmospheric BOV KIT for EA888.1. I have an early 2013, so not a gen 3 so it falls in the right category.
@@AndrewSpur73 okay well a BOV is simple mechanically speaking so I'd check if there is any vacuum leaks somewhere and if the the valve is closed when it needs to be. Not really sure what else to look for
Hey guys I’m having a problem with this product the car keeps shutting off sometimes any one having the same problem
If it shuts off after a pull like driving then when you start to coast it shuts off. That would mean you have a boost leak somewhere. I had one at an intercooler pipe. But if you're having issues after installing a BOV I'd check to make sure it's hooked up right
Hi whats better CTS BOV or the Forge?
It depends on what your looking for. both make louder sounds but the Forge is just a spacer and would still be actuated by the electronics. The CTS BOV is activated by vacuum pressure so you can rev it up in N and still hear the blow off valve sound. Also with the CTS it is all one unit and doesn't rely on keeping the stock diverter valve that can leak. CTS probably can hold more boost if you tune it, I don't have experience with the forge DV Spacer but with the CTS I can hold 21psi from eurodyne stage 1.
Cts sounds nicer to me
GFB is the superior product for both function and sound.
What exhaust system are you running?
In the video 3in catless downpipe to 3in Megan racing drift spec catback. No mufflers only small resonator.
I switched to a quieter catback from Billy Boat but they didn't make flanges for the hangers(covid days) and in the winter it fell off and got bent. Now I have stock catback on after loosing $700 on the last exhaust
Did you also install the included spring?, I didn’t see the spring part in your video
It comes with a spring already installed. Unless you go bigger turbo you won't need the other. I run 18-21psi stage 1 Eurodyne
@@SavageGTI my apologies for the late reply, I have the 2.0 engine, I’m hearing rattling noise from the location I installed the valve. I don’t know if I should use heavier spring or go back to stock
@MODEL AIRCRAFT @MODEL AIRCRAFT all mk5 and up GTI's use a 2.0T engine. But there is an FSI and TSI which they switched to for mid 2008. I have the 07 FSI which this install was for, either way if you're on a stock tune or stage 1 the stock spring is what you want. If you take it back apart you'll diagnose what the noise you hear is
Hopefully you awnser 😅 will this fit a 05 jetta 1.8t?
This one is specifically for the 2.0T. I'm assuming you have a mk4 jetta. So you would have to search for a mk4 Jetta 1.8 blow off valve. It looks like CTS does have one that will work. Look up CTS-DV-0005
@@SavageGTI thank man
i like ya cut g
What if i have a CTS catch can? what would i do to use the boost tap?
The BOV taps into the intake manifold not PCV. I haven't installed a catch can yet so I'm not sure what pluming you have for that. I'm sure any vacuum line would work and function just fine.
Looks like you would need to cap off the end of the intake manifold to maintain pressure. and run a line from this.
www.ecstuning.com/b-integrated-engineering-parts/ie-boost-cap-black/iebavc2bk~int/
Ok got it. The catch can came with a plug with a hole in the end like the one you posted so I will just need to tap into that.
@@jp450r correct just run the vacuum line for the BOV to the intake manifold and everything will work.
How did it work out for u ? I have cts intake and catch can and just ordered the bov
I put a DV converter on my gti. Blowoff valve sounds almost the same. Whats the difference?
I think you mean you have a DV spacer. Either way the BOV is actuated by a vacuum line tapped off the intake manifold. A BOV also vents built up pressure to atmosphere. With a spacer it just backs off the diverter valve from the mounting point and uses the stock electrical harness for actuation.
Whats the difference in sound and performance? Just want to know before I spend the extra amount for the blowoff valve. Sorry I ment dv diverter. Got from ecs tuning. Want to put the blowoff valve but for the price don't know much if it makes a big difference.
@@allin8811 A diverter valve recycles some of the boost pressure back into the intake system after letting off the gas. The DV has no audible sound. A BOV vents all air pressure and you can hear the sound even inside the car. A BOV can also be actuated in neutral because it is vacuum driven as apposed to the DV which is electronically controlled by the ECU.
I ran the upgraded DV for a bit but that ended up breaking on me so I switched to the BOV because I also wanted the sound.
Performance is the same or un noticeable due to the fact that the stock k03 turbo can spool quickly. Both options hold extra boost if you put a tune on your car. I'm running Eurodyne stage 1 which gives me a peak of 21psi and holds about 18psi consistent in a pull.
Ok I see.. well I put the dv diverter on and it made a SUPREME sound. Really really loud an sounds great. Its actually louder than my buddy's gti with the blowoff valve. And outruns his car. Thats why I'm a lite lost on if it's worth it. Sound wise it made a BIG difference
@@allin8811 I see. Well a DV or a BOV will not be the determining factor of which car is faster.
on this video do you have an aftermarker exhaust system
I believe in this video the car has a 3in catless downpipe to 3in Megan racing cat back. Essentially straight pipe. Not recommended for highway driving
@@SavageGTI nice. may i ask why your not recomending for highway drive.?
@user-sj3bq6yi1h very loud and drones around 3k rpm. Which at 65 - 75mph is right in that spot in 6th gear. It was fun but you can't have a conversation on the highway.
I would recommend a catback with a muffler and resonator. Even if it's a small muffler it will be way better than straight pipe
What exhaust do you have
In the video, an eBay 3in catless down pipe to a megan racing drift spec 3in catback. Soon I'm switching to a 3in Billy Boat stealth catback for a quieter setup
How’s the power difference?
Unchanged. My car holds 18psi peaked at 21psi verified with Eurodyne tuning. Throttle response is the same with the ko3 turbo
this BOV is nice but it gives me a check engine light every now and then but i know i installed as shown in the video
Interesting, I have had no issues even with a vcds scan. What code are you getting?
Oh wow didn’t know you would reply, I’ve gone down and checked the sensor and made sure all of the lines were secure and it was plugged in to negate the check engine light. It still comes on and i have yet to flash my car to see what for because every time i’m about to check what the signal is, it goes away. Very odd but you made me purchase the CTS blow off valve for my Mk6. Great video man👍🏼
4:47 me the first week I got a turbo car
You lose boost everytime you change gears bro coz its a manual, dsg it doesn’t matter tbh
I can confirm this. I took my blow off valve off and my boost maintains between shifts now. My girlfriend even noticed when she said she doesn't feel like she's being jerked around when I switch gears.
Btw I didn't take the valve off because of this. I took it off because my MPG went through the floor. The engine really wants that blow off diverted back into the engine and when it doesn't, it runs rich. My MPG literally dropped to the point where before the BOV I was averaging 350-370 miles on a tank. After the BOV that dropped to about 250-260.
Yesssssssss
Hey man how do u like the bov I just ordered mine mkv gti here
I love it. Still works great today
@@SavageGTI thanks for fast reply . I have cts turbo intake and catch can . Is the install going to be similar ?
@@joeyabraham9957 I would think so. The only thing you need to check is if you can use the vacuum tap off the intake manifold. If you capped that off you just need to tie into another vacuum line
@@SavageGTI the catch can came with a boost tap so if I take the boost tap out just run the line through there
@@joeyabraham9957 You just want to tie the BOV into your existing vacuum lines, not remove anything. keep everything the same but add another section that feeds the BOV.
Hey man, thats ur stock turbo?
yup with a 3in catless downpipe and 3in catback
@@SavageGTI remember your last video with the diverter valve i saw you soo happy and then i change mine but sometime the turbo make just 5 pound and then when u reset the ecu he make 13 and 15 pounds so i put the old one with ( turbo underboost) and the car make 9 and 7 pounds but the turbo make weird noises
@@gtimk5lovers489 If your DV has a crack in it replace it. It's the most common point of a boost leak but if your still down on power check your Intercooler hoses. On my car I had to use RTV Ultra Black to seal a pipe before it went into the intercooler on the right side of the car. Check to see if there is any oil dripping from the pipes if that is the case it's not air tight and boost could be escaping.
I found that the phone app doesn't accurately measure boost. After tuning my car with Eurodyne their software can log a run that will track boost (measured vs actual). I believe you can do this with VCDS as well. With a stock turbo and stock tune you should be at 12psi. with my stage 1 from Eurodyne I'm getting consistent 18psi.
@@SavageGTI you can check the video on my channel has the noise and you can see the boost and acceleration, mine is dsg, check the video.
@@gtimk5lovers489 If its the beep sound idk what it could be. What's the CEL for?
You said it would annoy some people LMAO that is the sound of Happiness right there blow off valve and turbo spool those are orgasm noises
I love it but met somone at a car meet who went back to the diverter valve
They tell you to do a recirc valve on ur stock car that uses MAF because if not ur gonna throw a code…
The kit I got doesn't throw a code stock or stage 1.
how much for BOV
I got mine for 200
What exhaust do u have?
In the video its a 3in catless downpipe to Megan racing 3in drift spec cat back. Right now I swapped out the catback for a billy boat stealth exhaust. Lots of drone at highway speeds with no mufflers or resonators.
@@SavageGTI can u make a video on ur new exhaust plz
I’m trying to buy an exhaust and I’m not sure which one to go with, I wanna know if the billy boat one is a good choice
@@aydanabalo449 yeah thats something I can work on for you. I do like my Billy Boat exhaust but it took 5 months to get it after purchasing. And the flairs at the end of the hangers were not made. Seemes like quality controll was poor on my unit. Good stainless steel and sounds good though
@@SavageGTI I rlly appreciate it! U replied rlly quick. I have a mk5 gti and I try writing people to find out the best things to purchase for it and they don’t usually respond. Thank you 😊
2.0t?
Yeah 2.0L engine with a turbo and this BOV was made for the FSI version of the engine
Savage GTI will it fit my tsi 2.0? And also the install u did next to the front axle was that the diverter or bov?
@@beliezer2067 The diverter valve and Blow off valve are essentially the same thing they mount in the same spot. The BOV vents boost into air when you let off accelerator with a loud pshh sound the Diverter valve recycles air back into intake quiet and stock option. you'll have to get a BOV that fits the tsi engine. Install should be same location right side of car just above the front axel. It's just a type of valve that relieves air pressure from the turbo system.
The blow off is a great way to trigger people to run tho
It's fun to time it with a group of people walking
If you drive a mT they don’t go off every 2 seconds.. only when shifting. Kinda lame in autos
i am not buying this shit if there are no tututututu after you release the throttle.
The 2.0t is not a modified 2JZ or RB26. Though It can give you the turbo flutter, you have to modulate the gas and clutch just enough to put a load on the engine (engaging reverse uphill always does it for me), or drive hard and heel toe. You should also have a tune and intake aswell. I'm sure a bigger turbo would make it even easier.
Funny video lol
So stupid to ditch a diverter valve for a BOV. Its an inferior option. Far better off upgrading the diverter valve.
I did have the upgraded diverter valve version, the piston part broke off and didn't work properly so I went with the BOV. it's superior and can hold more boost just turbo facts. k03 is small enough that spool time is nothing and throttle response doesn't change.
@@SavageGTI No, you had a stock diverter valve. Should have went with a dv+ upgrade. Bov is old and inferior. Cant do anything the dv+ cant do better.
my first video on this channel I pulled the stock diverter valve which had a hole in the o-ring then I bought the revision D diverter valve which replaces the rubber with a piston. then that broke at the same time I was chasing a boost leak from my intercooler piping and wanted to get a cool sound at the same time. You can't watch 1 video and know the full story, I like the BOV it works and holds 21psi verified with Eurodyne tuning software and turns heads as I boost past them
@@SavageGTI Again, regardless of revision its still the stock part. The DV+ from GFB is superior to any BOV. Your choosing an inferior product in favor of a sound, nothing more.
@@AdrenalineTheory Build your car how you want, the BOV is all billet construction and runs off of vacuum. If I want to add a boost gauge in the future I have a tap already installed. I just share what I do to my car
Bet car is fucked now
get a decent exhaust.. a gti doesnt need to make that shitty sound, unless it has more then 400+ hp
I could go 2.5in and get more turbo noises but I love the deep rumble of the 3in catless straight pipe. I've gotten a lot of complements at different shops
It sucks!
Lol well good thing it's not your car
