Synchronic BOV

Haave15 · 11-29-2020, 06:02 PM

I’m really debating whether or not to put a synchronic bov on my 2009 Subaru wrx with a sti engine, I heard it isn’t good to put a bov that isn’t recirculating on a wrx and I have heard that it can be used to recirculate, any advice???

Synapse? Don't. They are a weak construction and of the 2 i know that were installed on subarus (1 was mine) they broke off at the flange.

Ok, thanks for the info!! Would you recommend just sticking with the Subaru stock bypass valve? If not then any recommendations to what I should switch to?
