Help............R56 BPV Question

I just bought a 2011 R56 S and I was wondering if anyone know if the synchronic diverter vale will fit? Here is a link to their universal one: http://synapseengineering.pinnacleca...ly-558-16.html

I know there has to be 2 hoses that connect to it. I ran a synchronic bov on my Evo X and I loved it!

So if anyone has any feedback, I would appreciate it

You seem right. When I had a Subie and my Evo there was obviously tons of info everywhere. I can barely even find modded minis on youtube and usually there lots of vids on there. I can barely even find any dynos. All the info I find seems to be 2+ years old.

Is this the biggest mini forum???

there are plenty of mini modders.... personally i have not heard of this diverter.... search the forum and maybe you could find something about it... there are a few other diverter valves talked about on here that are a straight swap.. hope that helps a little

synapse is a topic of much debate on the interwebs. Ive heard good things. and, from some rather reliable sources... not so good things.

More importantly.

As mentioned your best be is to buy one that is designed for a direct bolt on. I belive forge and one other company make a reliable product. However if your just looking for your car to make sweet whoosh noises (who isnt ;-) then just put an intake on your car. it will give you the sound your looking for as well as a boost in performance

Thanks guys.

Besides forge who do you know who else makes a straight bolt on??? For an Intake I think I am going to get the Alta or the m7. Once I sell my evo parts I will get some mods.
