GFB Stealth BOV question

Ok.. i know this topic has been beaten to a pulp and YES i did a search on the topic. I know BOV's don't do a damn thing for performance etc.

My question is... everytime i search for info on the GF stealth it just says the sound is 100% adjustable.

Is it just the sound? Or does that mean it is 100% adjustable from 100% recirc (like stock) to 100% atomospheric (like any other aftermarket bov's)

Therefore, Am i right when i say the GFB stealth can act like the OEM BOV with a flick of the wrist for long trips with the GF? Then if i was feeling peachy, flick it to any other adjustment between 1-100% atmospheric for added noise on a friday evening drive?

Here you go Eric....

From GFB....

"By utilising a unique air diverting system you control exactly how much air you dump to the atmosphere for noise, or the inlet for silence. By sending the vented air back to the inlet (rather than muffling it), there is no restriction and the valve still operates at maximum efficiency. For cars with sensitive air flow meters, the valve can be tuned to vent just enough air back to the inlet to prevent backfiring whilst giving the loudest possible blow-off noise. No more guessing which valve will work on your car - this one will do it all!

Now here's the cool part … By turning the GFB world patented ratchet style head, you can finely adjust the amount of air that goes to each venting port, giving you complete control over how loud your gear changes are!"

I hope this helps!! Let me know if you would like one!!

They are very popular!!

Thanks,

Eric, you hit the nail on the nead. I have this BOV and I love it! 100% is a nice and loud "pfsssh!" although I now run it at around 50/50. It's still a great sound and I notice a better spool over the full 100% blow off (also feels better spool over stock but that might just be my imagination). And, with a flick of the wrist, I can dial it back down to 00% if need be. Like I recently did at drag night, although I got eliminated before I could test the different settings.
