Bov On An Auto Skyline?

[Modena]

Has anyone got an atmo blow off valve on their auto skyline? Many people roll eyes at the thought on an auto as atmo BOV goes off when manually changing gears as you step off the gas pedal... should this be with auto too? Gas it, step off the pedal, out comes the "vrooom choo" sound. I know many auto VLs have BOV that sound pretty good.

Sorry about the wanky topic but I just want some info from people who did have it done.

Cheers.

I'm a wanker so I think I'm well placed to aswer this one

The blowoff doesn't work when the gears change in an A/T, just when you step off the gas. It doesn't work because you're not required to step off the gas during gearchanges (duh!)...

So the only way for it to work is to drive 'attention whore' style and: speed up > step off > f*ckin whoosh! > every girl within earshot turns around and lifts their skirt in your direction.

I love it when 'tards in turbo cars time their gearchanges or step off the throttle as they go past alfresco cafes and the like... it makes having a blowoff valve one of the key things that makes you a MAN... well. that and a pair of testicles

mate...

an atuomatic turbo car differs from the manual in that it has an automatic transmission

THE ENGINE IS THE SAME

so, yes, they have a bov and it makes the same sound under the same condition that a manual does..

as rezz said, this is not during gear changes as you don't take your foot off the accelerator when changing gears, but whatever makes the manual car release the bov is the same in the auto

i hate the misconception that automatic skylines have all these differences just because they have an automatic box hooked up instead of a manual...

Yeah so do I! And to think all this time I've been missing out on all those ladies! I've noticed the whole BOV whoosh as cars pass alfresco cafes as well, I can't think of any such cafe in Perth that I've been to where I haven't heard them. It all adds to the atmosphere of an authentic outdoor dining experience.

lol werd.

guy who started the topic, ive got a blitz type s one on mine ( came with the car ) makes the whole "psssccchh" deal when backing off the accelerator... like waz said... same engines, only time it wont make the noise is gear changes... obviously. the turbo etc works the same otherwise.

I have a G-Reddy Type-S on my auto R33 and paired with the HKS pod and FMIC its an aural feast when driving..

I get the pssscht sound when I let of the throttle quickly and I get the sexy flutter sound when I let it off slow (real good at making people look). Along with this I have a FMIC which further amplifies the BOV noises (especially the flutter).

Yes it is very very wank but I love the noise. Just be smart and don't let it off when police are nearby.

Also atmo bovs may give you stalling dramas.

oh. haha yeah i have a HKS pod as well. which makes it louder. meh at wank factor. my car... i like the sound.. therefore. who cares. lol.

[cuando]

On an auto what happens when you push the accelerator and let it go many times in rapid succession?

same as changing gears quickly in a manual?

[Wink]

Well if you're talking about atmo BOVS yes the noise would be similar.
