HKS 2008-2011 Subaru STI SSQV4 BOV Kit
The HKS SSQV4 BOV Kit replaces the stock blow-off valve on 2008-2011 Subaru Impreza WRX STI models with a sequential valve design that vents excess boost pressure smoothly for faster throttle response and a sharp audible release. This complete kit includes STI-specific intake pipe, flange, and hardware for a direct bolt-on installation. Drivers experience reliable operation under high boost levels up to 29 psi while reducing compressor surge.
Key Features
- Sequential Dual-Valve Design: Main valve opens with high lift for instant response, secondary valve follows for progressive release, ensuring stable boost control across RPM range
- High Flow Capacity: Handles 500+ hp setups with minimal restriction, supporting larger turbos and increased boost pressures common in STI tuning
- Lightweight Die-Cast Aluminum: Titanium-like black anodized finish resists corrosion, weighs only 1.1 lbs for the valve alone to cut hood-down weight
- Adjustable Spring Preload: Five included springs allow tuning from 5-29 psi, matching stock ECU or aftermarket maps precisely
- STI-Specific Piping Kit: Custom aluminum pipe with O-ring seals connects directly to factory turbo outlet and intake manifold for leak-free performance
Product Notes
- Operate in vent-to-atmosphere mode for sound or recirculate with optional plug for quiet operation
- Inspect diaphragm annually for high-boost use to maintain seal integrity
- Kit ships fully assembled with all fittings, no additional parts needed
Installation Notes
- Professional installation recommended.
- Remove stock BOV and pipe, bolt new assembly in 30-45 minutes with basic tools
