Speedriven1

Speedriven replaces the factory plastic diverter valve found in the V12 biturbo Mercedes with high-quality billet aluminum parts that are machined from aircraft-grade material and are direct, bolt-on replacements for the factory BOVs (which are made of plastic). Once installed, they offer superior durability compared to the factory units, while also serving to give your twin-turbo Mercedes’ engine bay a more aggressive look and that sought-after "turbo sound".

We've also made them significantly easier to install than the factory 3-bolt BOVs by doubling the number of holes- allowing you to assemble your BOVs and align them properly without fighting spring pressure during install. You can read more about why 6 holes are better than 3 here: http://speedriven.wpengine.com/2015/...les-v-6-holes/





Better sound, better quality, and easier installation for $250. Can't beat that, right? Except, you can- because we're still offering our 10% off summer pricing on all billet parts, making these $225, shipped anywhere in the continental US.

are there install instructions?

Speedriven1

No- they install the same way the factory units do. Same location, position, etc. If you can take them off, you can put them on.

aeroman

okay I'll ask it differently. Are they hard to get to? How long should swapping them out take?

Speedriven1

They're tricky to get to- we've done them with the car on the ground and the hood up, but it's tight. That's one of the reasons we designed them the way we did, with the 6 bolts (3 to assemble it, 3 to attach to the turbo). Can you imagine trying to assemble the BOV in that tight space AND trying to bolt it together under spring pressure, all at the same time!?

What do you do with the factory bov's if I run your intercoolers and have the tials added?

Speedriven1

You have Tial BOVs and stock turbos? I don't remember doing one like that.

euphoriaDSM

No, I'm asking if I run your intercoolers and have you add the tials. What do you do with the stock bovs? I guess this should have been a pm.

Speedriven1

Oh! We'd send you some block-off plates.
