Which blow off valves?
So guys,
What blow off valves do you guys run in your cars? Just removed my HKS SSQ blow off valve, had it for a week, and did not like the way the car ran with it, so back to stock I go. WRX felt like it lost power with it on. Is there a way to adjust the Accessport to work with a 100% atmospheric instead of recirculating?
Peace Out Hommies!

Whoops almost forgot to ask, will running an octane booster help the WRX to run better with the HKS SSQ blow off valve? If so, what brand of octane booster would you guys suggest?

But Brandon your car is far from stock. If your car is stock then the OEM BOV is the best one to run. And just because you have a catback and a intake or what ever, your car is sill stock. Unless you are making a whole lot more PSI than stock then no need to upgrade unless you like wasting money and if thats the case then I'll take the money off your hands. And next time use the search feature..

silver satin
is right. I'd still be on the stock bov, but I have a fmic and went with the APS bov that was designed for it. I also would not go 100% vent to atmosphere. My bov vents back to intake unless it exceeds a point, at which time the excess vents to atmosphere. But like silver satin said, makes no sense for stock cars. I don't even remember what a stock car feels like.
