Best BOV kit for F30 N20?

Hello Friends,

I am humbly asking for your expertise and advice. Am looking to buy for 2015 328i model to get that whoosh sound.

Thanks in advance!

These cars have diverter valves that dump the excess pressure back into the intake, rather than a blow off valve that dumps to the atmosphere.

The only way to get close to that sound is to add an aftermarket intake with an exposed filter. The more exposed the better.

OP,
Instead of getting a BOV, i recommend you upgrade the diverter valves by getting the GFB DV+

as stated above we have diverter, not blow off valves. a blow off valve may be detrimental to performance, i'm not quite sure at this point because not many people have these and i'm interested if it enhances performance, i'm not interested in what blow off sound it makes. however if you must have the pssshhhh sound, check these out below.

forge and ctsturbo. if you use cts and have ewg you'll need boost tap+sensor, which makes it quite pricey if ewg.
