AFAIK you can't, the stock BOV leaks all the time, even at idle. So you will never be able to get the car to run with the re-circ pipe disconnected. If you really want a VTA BOV then you will have to replace the stock BOV with an aftermarket BOV.

WRONG

if you want to get the stock bov working without hte plumback, the solution is not an aftermarket bov, but an aftermarket ecu...

I have a top of the range turbo Smart BOV with a Power FC and its still not perfect, the problem being that after it vents there is still a small flutter (with large snail) causing air to go both directions in the AFM causing Power FC to freak! the computer thinks ok more fuel and if large injectors ie. 720cc thats heaps of fuel and bam a stall.

Sorry no answers only more problems, my advice stick to factory BOV system (or smaller injctors haha)

im looking at putting a front cooler, turbosmart type2 BOV, gizzmo electronic boost controller and this turbosmart thingy that can be adjusted so when you up the boost the computer wont get confused. i think this should pretty much solve problems all round.

I know its weird, its not so much the injectors but the AFM reading air coming back in on the flutter and then of course the over dose of fuel.

Best of luck with all the mods, I'm sure they will all be sweet together.

You sound very sure. :thumbsup:

Have you tried it, the stock BOV cannot be used as a VTA BOV because it leaks at idle, it has nothing to do with the ECU.

well i was being a bit definate there wasn't i.. he he

what i meant to say is that changing to an afermarket bov is NOT going to fix the problem

the problem is that air that has been accountered for is being lost

Putting another device that loses air will simply return the same problem

the only way to fix it is to either:

- put a re-circulating bov on the car (stock or aftermarket)

- use a decive that accounts for the lost air, thus keeping the AFR in equilibrium

the stock BOV cannot be used in a VTA situation because the spring is too soft and cannot be adjusted.

You can run an aftermarket VTA BOV with the stock ECU, you just have to adjust it properly. If it's stalling then the spring is probably too soft and staying open too long.

The only problem with VTA BOVs is running rich during gearchanges when the BOV vents

I was running a Greddy Type S and now a GFB StealthFX, both with no problems with stalling whatsoever.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.

      Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts.

      Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha

      Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
