Have any of you guys used an adjustable BPV? I have decided that I need a little more rear brake action when autocrossing. The stock BPV gives a 80/20split (F/R). Before I go to an adjustable unit I'll try a stock unit from a 2001 w/ ABS which is actually a "dummy" valve that gives a 50/50 split all the time. Any comments welcome.
IIRC Gary from Trackdog had or has one on his red car. Maybe give him a shout.
I'll confirm he's got one...Quote:

So.... how much do those dummy prop valves cost?
$16.xx from Mazda Comp. I think the real danger in using these will be on wet streets, so not the best thing for a daily driver. Maybe I shouldn't jump to a premature conclusion at this point. That "mirror-cross" course yesterday at MW was not our "typical" course layout. I'd like to try it at Pennington as well as on a "normal" MW course before wholeheartedly endorsing it. (:cat:)
Yup. Fully understand. Just curious, and 16.xx sounds much better than having to reflare tubing and spend 75.xx...Quote:
