Only just noticed this thread. :P

Had a really long reply planned but I cbf. Here's the short version:

Whats wrong with the factory one? And why do you want to blow ~$300 on a new one?

When you drive by and "whoosh" at me, I won't be thinking that sound makes the car any cooler. I'll be thinking, "Why on earth did that ass clown blow ~$300 on an externally venting BOV for a AFM metered car when you just *know* its going to cause problems".

But shit, get one if you want. In fact, why bother buying a turbo car when you can buy this now. :O

eh...

I look at it a little more holistically than grandeko.

If you bought a car to be "practical", you'd probably buy an excel, or maybe a micra.

If you buy a jap sportscar, you probably bought it to enjoy it. for some, that means putting micky-T's on and aiming for 9s. for some, circuit racing at the plex. others still will choose to go down a different route and buy 19 inch rims.

19 inch rims generally make the car drive worse, slower and cost a fortune to buy and insure. But no one ever really gives a shit...

I reckon if a bov makes you enjoy the experience more, and contrbutes to the fun you have because you get to scare old ladies in the tunnel, go a bov. :P

If not, then eh!?

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
