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

    • Thanks mate, couldn't find in VIC, ended up ordering one from NSW, getting rwc to get new plates and registration done.
    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home
