Monday I have receveid my BOV Spacer by EuroExport.
I have install it this tuesday and seriously this product is soo GREAT!
There is a nice and LOUD sound like the Real MOPAR BoV Spacer for srt-4 for half of the cost of a real mopar then it's not really made for the Genesis.
It's like only 15min for the installation and u have a fonctionnel BOV that don't break u're car warranty

.

I strongly recommand this product.

Good Job ''EuroExport'' !!!

Glad you enjoying the new BOV, i was really happy with the end product as it
sounds very similar to my HKS :bowdown: and at about an 1/8th if not less than
the cost of my HKS

So just to clarify. You don't need to buy a bov. This part lets it vent into the atmosphere?

No, u don't need to buy a BOV, it's a spacer then transform u're BPV valve in BOV. It's only a spacer between the BPV valve and his flange on the turbo that stop the recirculation of aire and shoot them outside with a powerfull PSCHHHHHHHi!!

It's the same conception of the ''Mopar bov spacer'' for the ''srt-4'' but perfectly fitted for our Genesis coupe. A GREAT piece done only by EuroExport ! And it's possible then in a near futur this part will be in u're local dealer ... EuroExport is on negociation for this if i'm not wrong !

It's the Perfect BOV to keep u'r warranty on and if u want a BOV without other HEAVY mod on u're Gen coupe.

now my questions is, does this make the stock BPV not leak anymore? If so I think its a worthy mod for some extra performance. if it still leaks, then i dont see the point on a car that you truely want to mod. Great part for someone just wanting to be heard. any testing done prior and after to see if the leak is still there?

I have absolutely no leak.
The performance it's the same.
Not more juice but not less with this mod.

The leak is still there but only if your running above 19psi, but if your running
over that then your asking for to much from the turbo.. The leak is so small..
You have a much larger leak on the piping coming from the intake manifold into
the air intake(rubber hose you connect from the metal pipe on your intake)

The video shows my car holding like 20+ psi using only the stock BPV valve so
is this a worthy product heck yea.

We are in talks with our local dealerships and regional Hyundai rep to try and
get the part on their shelfs, it all comes down to money, these are made in
the USA so it's not cheap as far as money goes for us to make them, making
them in china for like a buck and selling them cheaper to Hyundai would be a
better deal for them and us but then Hyundai could just create this them
self...

Guys, these plates are essentially boost leaks. lol! Plus... You'll sound like a dump truck.

No way ...
I confirm than the sound is great in real. (maybe less great in video)
I will take a small vid to compare.

I have not leak, but i need maybe a boost gauge to be sur at 100%.

First off, Please buy a boost gauge if you are going to mod your car, this should be the first mod on any turbo car stock or not.

Even with a boost gauge you cannot tell exactly when it starts to leak, you
need to do a boost leak test. If it allows the stock BPV to hold more boost before leaking then its a good upgrade for people who are worried about warranty and sound, plus a few extra hp from the bpv leaking later and holding more psi.

The stock Bpv is junk since it cant fully hold stock PSI levels. This possibly could just make it better for people running stockish setups

Can't figure out why this is so much more than the block off plate, interesting product though.

It cost more because one it's 3X's the material, and it also spends more time on
the machine to have all the holes cut.

Way to knock a product down Tom.. Maybe i should post my feelings about the G&M SRI...

These plates are no more a boost leak than any other BOV, the stock BPV has
been leak tested up to 19psi before it started leaking any major amount of boost
so this product is perfectly fine for the guys keeping the stock turbo with only
mild mods and running just about any of the stage 1 tunes out there.

The plate doesn't sound like a dump truck, honestly i think it sounds very close
to my $200.00 HKS type3.

Sounds like a good/reliable cheap alternative to me.

^^ You can post feelings about my product all you want. Our customers love their intakes, so that's that.

Besides, I'm not here to insult your company's work. I'm here to provide an honest answer.

With that said, a blow off valve plate has no beneficial function. Especially when paired with the weak oem bpv. An aftermarket blow off valve however, is functional. There's a reason why our fellow SRT-4 friends at SRTforums.com - Dodge SRT Forums - SRT4, SRT6, SRT8, SRT10 and Dodge Forum don't like to use the blow off valve plates.

Lastly, unless you're a paying vendor and are contributing to the site, then don't advertise your wares here. Pay up like everyone else and all will be well.

I agree that the BPV leaks but it doesn't have any major leaks under stock
pressure, in which case for those who will never do a tune the plate is a great
choice and even a good choice for those running <19psi. It's been said 100x's
over that an HKS, Tial etc are just noise makers if you are running stock
pressure.

Tom your so quick to ASSUME i was going to bash your product... (which is
exactly why i said it the way i did). Do you have something against me?

Furthermore i'm not selling anything on here nor am i advertising products.. i
created threads to show progress of prototype parts i was working on which
in turn led people to searching at Google and what not to find the product
after it was developed. Additionally if you are referring the cracking the stock
ECU to wares, i think you are extremely off base with that comment.

I am not aware of any rules i have broken according to the terms and
conditions i agreed to when i signed up for gencoupe.com(yes i have a copy
of what i agreed to). Finally to that point this is a community which just so
happens to pull together very well, and i have provided countless hours of
information to the community through research which none of it i have
profited from so gencoupe.com can consider that payment for any wrong
doings (if any).

No one has proved to me that the stocker leaks. I have done my own leak tests on this and on my old srt-4. It isn't the best by any means I'll give anyone that. I ran my old mopar plate on this car and the srt. I loved it cuz it was a cheap way to vent hot air and not recirculating it. The line on top of the valve feed it boost and at has a spring. If you make ten psi in the charge pipe and you have ten psi going to the other side of the diaphram and a three psi spring there as well then how will it open to leak? Yes it's cheap. No it's not the best. Yes over twenty psi the rubber seal might deform and leak. Yes I love my hks bov lol. For guys who don't wanna go crazy with mods but want the noise and a little performance I feel this is a great option. I brought it up in a thread and to BBB and now we have one. Sorry to interrupt your guys pissing match lol. Just my two cents. Have fun lol.

I just installed my spacer today. I really love the sound and I havent lost any power that I can tell. I appreciate Euroexport's customer service. At first my Paypal didnt go through and they called and emailed me to make sure that my transaction was smooth as possible. Thanks Bill for all the research (crack the stock ECU) you have given the community. You could have kept it to yourself. I believe the people at Euroexport are honest people. Probably vendors are getting mad because they want the GC community to buy their $300 BOVs. Let this not begin a bash fest.
