BMS BOV Vacuum Adapter Question

Boosted135i · 04-14-2020, 10:01 PM

Why would it only work and be applicable if you have a Tial BOV?
I ask as I have the HKS SSQV and broke the nipple on my manifold during install and originally ordered the Vader Solutions option which I've waited over 6 weeks for with a major lack of communication only to find out it also only works with a Tial BOV so now I am waiting on a 100.00 refund for all while my vacuum line from my BOV isn't connected to anything.
I am trying to avoid tapping into the manifold.

Will either of these actually work with the HKS? Or what on earth am I missing on why it would only work with a Tial when it's just a damn vacuum line.

You have to fix the hole in your manifold anyway. Can't leave it open, why not just do the tap. The threaded nipple and 1/4" hose are like $8 in parts at home depot and it made my race port close better, before the tap I thought my bov was fluttering a bit. But after, its a solid open and close

the adapters can work with any blow off valve. they just give you the Barb fitting to fit the bigger line for tial or (BMS) they have the quick disconnect option which the HKS won't be able to use. You can still use the vacuum adapters and put your own 1/8npt to whatever size barb you need.
