i've heard the stock bov on a skyline can handle about 1bar of boost right?

what would happen if you exceeded that, say to 1.5bar

going for a dyno run on friday and want to run 1.5 but then will wind it down quite a lot for everyday driving, so the question, is it alright to exceed the 1bar limit occasionally?

Thanks INASNT and all who replied.

By my calculations 1.5bar is approx 23psi. right or worng?

So according to the answers here that is more than the BOV can handle theoretically.

Will it do any damage if i pump 1.5bar through it on 1 occasion?

what turbo are you planning to run 1.5 bar through? and constant 1.5 bar in the engine and the pistons and rods are not gonna be happy either, it will be time for forged pistons and short penned rods. Try use a turbo where around 1 bar will give u the power u want!

Yeah mate, i wont be running that high boost much of the time, only on the dyno and possibly if i ever take it to the drags.

turbo is a bit of a mystery, another reason i'm taking it to the place its being tuned is to find out.

its either a t04 or GT30.

it is rated a 600hp though :D

I don't think that you will have a problem with the bov leaking.

it is more the fact that when the bov has to actually "BLOW OFF" it might not be able to handle THAT much pressure.

so you might get the compressor surge sound (fluttering.)

if you want, I have a NEW GFB HYBRID bov for sale.

$200

it plumbs back and vents to atmosphere at the same time so you don't have the back fire issues..

and they can handle ALOT more than 1.5 Bar boost.

yes it makes a pssh sound.

no you can't just say it's a plumb back because there is a entry for the plumb back and on the opposite side there is a trumpet for the atmo.

oh by the way..

I can read your sig and I have been getting laid..

so what now?

hahahaha

very clever though.

    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
