Meh..I heard a few sound clips and I can't say I like the sound. I'm sure it's really fucking loud but overall I think i'll just stick with the blue plate

If you dont have washers...you can put quarters.

They are identical in size.

<------ Haz quarters in his RFL with 0 leaks.

Im running the turbo xs rfl right now but im gonna get a hks ssq this week. When i first installed the rfl it leaked bad. Then i tightened it and havent had many problems with it. but it still leaks at times. The sound is amazing.

I just finish the installation of mine, I like it

But I didn't put any washers on it, Dose it need it? if so Y?
Mine takes 10 psi to open is that normal?
Thank you

The washers are there to help keep the BOV closed @ idle to over come engine vacuum. They also help in adding spring tension to make/help the valve stay closed. I have two washers only installed in my RFL BOV & to date have zero issues. If you were at 1 psi or 10 psi, then lifted off the throttle quickly & the valve opens. The valve is working as it should.

Phshew alright good. Makes different bov noise depending on how much psi, its fun to mess around in town with it.

Is your BOV only starting to open at 10 psi ? Meaning 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 psi it stays closed regardless how quick you let off the throttle ? Then at 10 psi it opens up ?

If I put my hand on it I can feel it opening at sum psi, but i cant hear it

it takes 10 psi for me to be able to hear it
