Default Blow Off Valve 300 F Sport

Looking for a quality blow off valve if it can be added to my new 300 F Sport for the Twin Turbo's...

A google search found this... https://www.proimporttuners.com/part...off-valve.html

I don't see a lot people here talking about blow off valves. I would also ask one of the vendors if they have advice. Josh @ Meraki is fast and knowledgable.

Few things here, albeit super comical

1) no twin turbos, 300t has a little baby hairdryer aka 1 turbo ( not plural )
2) if you want to add “ noise “, the aem intake is a great addition - you def hear the BOV which is really a diverter valve
3) these cars have an electronic divirter, so youre not replacing the part
4) tti motorsports make a product called the diverter spacer, but it’s a ***** to put on. I have one, yet remains uninstalled.
5) 2 other product worth looking into that give you better flow and bov sound.
- tti turbo muffler delete kit, and the cold side charge pipe from FTP motorsports

I have an rcf highly modded, but my girls car is an NX200t Fsport. Same motor, etc. I’ve done these mods. It’s fun, makes the car more enjoyable ( since I’m on the jb4 tune ) and the sound you’re looking for is definitely there!

Yes it's a single small turbo sorry lol... So what exactly did you add to your girls car... I'm not looking for a race car lol just some added performance... Did you add the Muffler Delete Kit, Side Pipe and the AEM Intake? Anything else... Is it worth a performance chip if possible?

If you want a nice sound upgrade start with a cold air intake. The change in sound is great.

Mods -

aem intake
cold side charge pipe
diverter spacer
turbo muffler deleted - ordered
JB4 - tune

jb4 I bought used, it was more than worth it. Next the aem that added a lot of sound and “ woosh “. The spacer boosted the sound a lot, the cold side charge pipe added more spool sound and a little pedal variance. The turbo muffler should increase sound from what I’m told.

I enjoy driving this car a lot. I love my RCF but it’s not practical and running e85 it’s a ***** to find gas lol. So, I drive the nx a lot and made it more likable. It scoots now, I love the bov / turbo sounds and it’s still a people mover / hauler when we need it. Overall, totally worthwhile if you send a lot of windshield time

Thank you man! Very helpful.... Do you service the vehicle @ the dealer? or do you do it yourself ? Dealer give you a hard time with the mods if you go there?

Default 2018 nx f sport

Any one ever see any of those items for a 2018 nx f sport. I can’t even find an intake system. I’m looking for anything to allow me to hear the spooling and dump off.
