More than likely not

But in theory it should due to some of the air running back into the engine and not getting dumped into the atmosphere?

Ill play with this and get back. This whole "pshhht sick uleh" shit is bit annoying considering the car is not as reliable as its with a stock bov.

GFB hybrid was installed on my car for years, no issues with stalling from it, full atmo was swapped and i had that issue.. it will be better than a full atmo.

So no stalling at all on 50 50? Cos I been driving with it for a few days now and it stalled completely once when I was idling... and then also had these small "set backs" like when I pushed the throttle and it just stalled for half a sec then let go and was fine again... this really pisses me off.

no stalling at all related to the 50,50 setup i had.

each car is different though, they are worse than people sometimes lol

thanks dude... ill give it a go this week.

PS love the pod suction noise and flutter... did u lose any of that? how did she sound on 50 50?

i've got a stealthfx .. on about 60/40 cos i don't want it too loud .. i have no stalling issues whatsoever . .even if i put in the clutch and let the revs fall.

if you are getting stalling, adjust the spring tension by twisting the cap only. that will make the bov close sooner and should get rid of your stalling issues.

Was it the stealth fx BOV??

I so want that bov.. Best soundin one i have heard..

What does your sounds like on just plumback??

no its GFB Hybrid... u can have 50 atmo 50 plumback setting.

my mate has Stealth FX on his s15... it sounds the best like u said... the flutter down low and awesome water splash when giving it!

well the flutter on a skyline is compressor surge not such a good thing to have if you value the life of the turbo. the 50/50 set up should be fine.

yeah its the BOV fluttering and it says that its OK for flutter at low RPM in the booklet.

at high rpm it whistles!

also look at VL turbos... they have no bov... and their turbos seemed to last for years.

I still get a flutter (gfb hybrid on 50/50) noise on low boost but thats coming from the bov it self as piston slides up and down.

When i took the bov off it fluttered in a different way.

u just connect the hose to the plumback trumpet right and vent the atmo plug yeh?

one pointing towrds you and is round, put hose over that to the std plumb back piping..

the other is a trumpet and you leave it alone.

just have to swivel the bov on the adapter so its in the right position..

edit : use hose clamps

      7 Speed Auto transmission fluid change (Skyline, Q50, Q60, Fuga, Q70, A62 Titan and probably heaps of others including Navara...)

      I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....

      So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.

      our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
