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.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
