What did you do to your Civic today? (II)

[Xernive]

If you're to get a bov, avoid Boomba. HKS is likely your best bet

Thanks for the advice! I'll look into HKS

Hey I'm selling one with the civic adapter if you want, but I wouldn't recommend using it. Since it messes with the MAF sensor. But I didn't have any issues, the car didn't feel as smooth as the stock one, so I just reverted, used it for like 2 weeks.

Yea I haven't really seen any good reviews or something that would suggest otherwise, Might skip out on the BOV, just wanted to see if it would change any sounds

It does but it is not worth it imo, a nice air intake will sound much better.

Why is ANYONE even considering a BOV at this point? Frankly, it's stupid.

I guess the BOV peeps are the ones who want one of these too:

gotta tighten up my rear motor mount. reinstalled my oem mount three weeks ago and i don't think i torqued it tight enough. getting a clunk that keeps getting worse when engaging gears. more noticeable now that it's hot out and using A/C.

might change out the MTF too if I have time before work.

I get that but a decent intake will give your sound without the overly rich condition.

In my defense it's the only stock part I have left under the hood plus my CAI (K&N) does sound nice but it doesn't do the turbo any justice with my 27WON W1 upgrade. Figured I could change the sound with a decent BOV.

Edit: Also to note it is just for comparison reasons, not a perm swap.

I think you're better off getting a PRL CAI or 27Won CAI. I'd lean toward the PRL if you're looking for the sound

I have the 27WON Turbo inlet pipe & PRL IC w/ charge pipes etc. but as far sounds go or compatibility still was unsure on 27WON or PRL.

Decent BOV? I think it's called the OEM BPV.

Sorry I didn't mean to trigger the BOV PTSD, I know how much you despise them... Just figured it would be something worth looking into lol

Do what you want man. If something gets f'ed, it's on you. Nothing else to be said.

The bottom line for me is I want my car to run well. Knowing a BOV may contribute to my car not running well long term is a no for me. To each their own though.
