what were you doin at the very start of the video where u mess with the battery and why?

[smithboy76908]

@dhsieh911018 It appears he was doing the same thing that I always do before starting any work on my car. Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery so you kill power to the entire car. That way there is no fear of anything shorting out while you are working on the car. Especially when you are working with wiring. Kinda pointless with the bov as there's nothing electrical to it but it's a safe practice.

@smithboy76908 Yeah Smithboy is correct. It's just a habit I have but was unecessary for this install.

You might want to go back and put a small bead of liquid seal on that seal plate...just saying...90% of seal gasket blow outs and leaks are due to dry seal plate attachment...just saying great vid!

[cuzimaluzer77]

you got a real good camera huh?

[Aetherfury]

@cuzimaluzer77 I like it! I used to use a Canon Vixia HF20 but this video is all shot on my new Canon 7D on a 50mm lens @ 2.8/f

You seriously make some great vids dude. This isn't even exciting and it's great to watch. Keep it up!

[eckojuice]

no sound clip differences????

another excellent aether video!

[Aetherfury]

@eckojuice Thanks man! Yeah I wanted to do some direct comparisons but I don't have any out of car footage of the Streetunit one. I'll post a comparo later. I'm trying to get someone to loan me an HKS SSQV so I can compare all three.

If you listen to my resonator delete video, that has the Streetunit one, but it's all in-car stuff.

what benefit did you get from swapping to the fully recirculated valve?

[Aetherfury]

@enginecomp69 well the car is made to run in full recirc so it runs smoother. Power feels the same but it's a little less jerky.
