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
- Uses factory mounting holes and includes stainless hardware for secure fit

Forced Induction
Forced induction systems encompass every method of pushing air into an engine at greater than atmospheric pressure, including turbochargers driven by exhaust energy, superchargers driven mechanically by the crankshaft, and prochargers using centrifugal designs belt-driven at higher ratios than traditional roots-type blowers, with each approach delivering a significant increase in air mass per cylinder fill that allows proportionally more fuel to be burned and more power to be produced without increasing engine displacement. Adding 10 PSI of boost pressure to a naturally aspirated engine can increase power output by 50 to 70 percent depending on the engine's breathing efficiency and the quality of the supporting hardware, making forced induction the most power-dense modification available relative to cost and complexity. This collection covers complete forced induction systems, turbocharger and supercharger hardware, intercoolers, blow-off valves, wastegates, and supporting component...
