a wastegate is different to a blow off valve. Are you wanting to change to a different bov or just fit a new one?
Ok, I'm confusing "dump valve" with "waste gate". I'm thinking about changing to a new bov, so I can hear the pffft / pissh sound - so a different, after market, bov
I have this model, a direct replacement for the factory set-up. http://www.k-takeoff.com/catalog/other/blow_off_valvess.htm Here's a video of one fitted. The video doesn't do it justice though, but you get an idea of how it fits. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCvWSIbKDSc&feature=youtube_gdata_player
I managed to get mine second hand for £100. You could try Jesse Streeters to see if he can get you a second hand one from Japan. http://jessestreeter.com Have a search on Yahoo Auctions in Japan to see if you can find one. http://auctions.yahoo.co.jp Search for l880k Here's one: http://page2.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/b152686889?
Nothing specific to the Copen local. If the Take Off one dfosen't take your fancy there is a HKS model too:SUPER SQV4 COPEN L880K JB-DET http://www.hks-power.co.jp/en/product/blow_off/sqv/index.html http://page16.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/u59306466
Finally bought the R SS Do you have to put the little sound deadening cover on her for the MOT? Do you have to manual adjust the spring, or is that already done? Any tricky issues installing, or gotcha's?
Nope never fitted the cover. No adjustment required. Just don't loose any of the hose clips when you swap the old one out. Take photos of the factory set up, where hoses go to. Then if you decide to sell in the future you can remove the flash one & you'll be able to re-fit the factory setup.
Pretty much any bov will fit, I've got a sard, hks ssqv and baileys trumpet that I alternate between depending on mood and what sound I want
Hi, im looking to replace /upgrade the standard dump/blow off value and i noted your post and link to one you have, how much are they?
30,000 JPY for this one - http://www.k-takeoff.com/catalog/other/blow_off_valvess.htm That equates to 230 EUR or 169 GBP. Excluding delivery, customs, etc. I bought this exact model via Jesse Streeter, and I think it was about 240 EUR all in.
