Ok so my older car has the new school ssqv, and it has become a parts car to my new purchase, but the new one has the old school ssqv and I wa wondering if there are ANY advantages to swapping it to the new style or should I just leave well enough alone? They both work fine fwiw....
Ssqv diffs
- Thread starter giterboosted
- Start date
The difference between the 2 is one has an adjustment and the other doesnt.
My understanding was that people thought that they could raise the boost or it would work "better" by tightening the screws(which the screw was there for adjustment for higher boost levels) and too many people ended up getting too much compressor surge and blowing turbos and blaming it on the bov.
Either will do the same thing. Just make sure the screw is as far out as possible with out leaking under boost on the old one.

Maybe it's not the oldest version then cus neither has the adjustment screw, so rlly there is no difference at all?
Why do you think one is older than the other?
If they dont have adjustment screws it is either a v2 or v3 and iirc the v3 just came out not too long ago.
When they are placed over the turbo the heat will cause them to turn gold fyi.
Pics would help too.

Well neither has it so one is a gen 2 an one is a gen 3, between these two are there any performance based differences? Obviously not hp, that's not why I meant, but as in how well they work.....?
Ha that's what I thought, I was thinking maybe the fins help keep it from heatsink or something but really would it even do enough to matter? I don't think so
