Which Bov?

[Guest RedLineGTR]

take you stock bov off and and on the bottom of it there is a hole that constantly leaks boost, ther were some discussions about blocking it up with a screw and filing it off. But other than that keep the stockie, less problems with stalling and less attention from piggies...oink oink..

[Flynnn]

Thanx for the feed back guyz, and all the help.. I was also wondering how could i get the cooler sound happening in my car, the sound which is something like Vooooooooodduudududu, i hear em mostly on VL's.

BTW, inark as u said for the cruises, i would love to cum but most of the cruises here are in south western suburbs. im in northern suburbs and its prettie long way to get to the cruise meetings u have. if it was in city or somewhere close to the city, it would of been great!

[inark]

dont worry there will be plenty more...

ps. raza came from SUNSHINE... now thats a long way to go

damn right

i was also told you can block the stock one up with a plate in the piping, makes ahuge diff in power i was told, im going to try it this week

huge difference in power hey?? :bahaha: dont think so.

My car runs better with my stock bov on than when i had my blitz one on.

[DJ_L3ThAL]

yer but did u try blocking the stock one ?

[Guest INASNT]

i wont bother with that because its the non recurlating bov that causes the car to run shit. When i do my power upgrade i will get rid of the stocker and get a plum back aftermarket job

[DJ_L3ThAL]

i spose, u already got dicked by cops, spose a second time wouldnt hurt but plum bascks are pretty quiet anyways so u should be right

Poyz-yeah mine flutters a lil at low rpm, but under 3k does nothing which is perfect.

Denham- My Bov doesnt effect how my car runs at all, had no problems...

[DJ_L3ThAL]

i heard if you go aftermarkte the blitx top end one is the bets, quiet, but notceable (not annoying) and helps performance as much as a BOV can

[inark]

bovs... why not get some LEDs?

blocking that hole... hmmm i dont know much about that kind of stuff but common sense tells me that if nissan put a hole to release boost pressure im sure they did it for a reason...

im running "14" psi at the moment.... it peaks to 14psi @ 4200rpm then drops almost instantly down to a steady 10.44 by 6000rpm.

now im no mechanic, nor am i performance expert... but im guessing if that pressure drop is eleviated by plugging this hole up... my stock turbo is going to give in.

can someone clear this up for me? someone that actually KNOWS not someone that is guessing or thinks.

[DJ_L3ThAL]

im not guessing or thinking, a operformance shop told me its one of the bets value for money (amost free) mods u can do after u run proper boost etc, keeps the turbo spooling without damamging it or something

i had a blitz non plum back back and it was farked!

[SmoothLine]

How do i know if mine is plumb back?

I has this little line that runs from the back of the bov, back into a pipe....

[Guest INASNT]

take a pic of it

That Vooooodudududud sound is your turbo backspinning. See when you close your throttle, your turbo is still spining creating excess compressed air in the intake manifold. Once this air cant compress anymore in the intake, it then the air moves backwards, (back through the intercooler, and out your airfilter.)while your turbo wheels are spinning backwards & forwards really quickly. thus creating that Vooooooouddududu sound

These noises sound f*%&n sick, and are relativley harmless on low boost (1BAR & under) but keep in mind nissan has provided the car factory with a BOV for a reason. Mainly to reduced turbo wear & provide Faster spool times between shifts/gears (because the turbo doesnt have to "re-spool" as much between shifts.

If i wear you (original person who wants to change BOV), i would purchase a more accurate "plumback" (You dont want attention from the cops, youl get enough just driving a skyline) BOV for further down the track like a G-ready. Stock BOV perform very average after the factory boost setting of 7-9 PSI as the spring tension on the factory BOV is set to open on 7-9PSI. Allthough it will still work after this setting you will find that boost will come on quicker with a aftermarket BOV (like gready) as it will not "leak" boost all the way to 15PSI. (unlike the factory, under 15PSI)

I've got an old Blitz.

Originaly had it venting to atmo (trumpet and all). Car ran fine.

Now its plumbed back. Car still running fine. No noticeable improvements, just a tiny bit quieter.

I suspect I have a VERY STIFF spring. Even at 1.4-1.5 bar the bov will open with a loud woooosh then flutter after the initial piston opening up.
