dose does sound better but whats better for your turbo :/

however if you have a factory bov, it gosh pshh, why else would you want to change it.

i much prefure the sound of a screamer, shame its illegal :cheers: but as most of you have pointed out unless the cop knows what he is doing and looks under the car there not going to know, most of the time i think they just look for shiny shit and say THATS DEFECTABLE. i remember when a cop said i had a bov on my 4agze (this is a supercharged motor with a Throttle body before teh SC) and he pointed to the fuel regulator, i was like are u f**kn serious, not to mention my dad being asked if he had a V6 in his BA GT lol

atmo bov are just as good as stock ones or plumb backs. just as its the same as cars with no BOV.

stop dissn others personal tastes. if u wanna get that picky i can start shootn off about other shit.

why do u tint ur windows.

why did u change ur rims

why do ppl change their airbox to a pod.

we do these things cuz we like em.....simple as that

And everything you just criticised we criticise too if it's not legal.

Purely, and simply, atmo BOVs are illegal, and 9/10 they just fu'ck up our atmosphere, and make this world a less pleasant place to live in.

Seriously, atmo BOV are a PITA and annoying as hell.

why do u tint ur windows.

to keep the car cooler during the day. it lowers the temp insdie the car

why did u change ur rims

so i could get wider tyres so i get more traction

why do ppl change their airbox to a pod.

so i could get as much air as possible into the engine

You beat me to it lol.

Also, your comment on ATMO being as good as stock \ plumb back - is crap.

They aren't. You obviously have no mechanical knowledge, and don't know that you simply can't use a ATMO BOV with a AFM configured car without running into problems.

Its not a personal taste - Its an annoying mod that people put on to piss off cops, and make owning a "japanese import" harder for the people that don't like to attract attention.

I've had both (Turbosmart plumback and type 3 supersonic) on my 31, difference?

Noise, thats about it, 31 doesn't run a bov standard so venting bov doesn't effect the ecu and backfire.

Sister's 34 did have the Turbosmart type 3 supersonic on it for a little while, caused alot of backfire, standard one went back on.

Can you send me some better pics of your car? I love black rims on silver.

hey, yeah i can do that 4 ya ;).. pm me your email and ill send some over to you... i love the dark rim look on silver to, sorta loox meaner.. hehe... i was looking at your car stats before, and damn they are nice..

i love that other guy who commented about: why have a tint and why have wider rims,, lol..

im sure wider rims dont cause the effect that a atmo bov would to a plumback or no bov,..hehe

wider rims help alot..

I think he ment dont be ignorant and well done!

well its all personal taste,you might like neon but i think thats gay ;) and checker plate yuck :rofl: lol

but the facts are serious HP cars use them too from pikes peak to WRC,1100 hp jap cars,dragsters

I did get a ghb that does both because when i get sick of it i can turn the knob

Dragsters run superchargers, no BOV.

WRC I think someone stated DON'T run BOV at all.

Australian rally, some do, some don't.

The new porsche GT3 I think it is, race car, doesn't run a BOV at all.

Also, your BOV is still illegal, so have fun when you get reamed for it. As it's not always as easy as getting a blueslip!

he didnt say dont be ignorant. so if he meant that?, why didnt he say that?.. instead of a example which made no sence..

and im sure this topic has more of a impact on your car then a neon. Your talking about taste, bov isent about taste, its about performance!, a neon is taste, or a color is taste, not a bov or tyres and performance parts.. lol.

but i think if any one reads through this thread, you will get a good idea of what is best.. each to there own, very true..

some people compare what track cars use?.... well, im pritty sure most are useing there cars for street, (i know there alot of track guys out there :domokun: .. so how about, go plumback for the streets?, and what ever you want for the track hey?..

bov are loud enough, why do why need atmo on the street?, and there are some great points about turbo life with a plumback, very easy to understand...

i had a atmo HKS SSQ on the GTiR.

standard plumbacks on the GTR

and 180sx had a HKS SSQ and changed to a big port high tension bov... cause it releases air in larger quicker amounts les laggy and holds more boost without leakage..

and now apparently im a wanker for doing so.. why do u have chromies and i have light weight racing rims..? whos the wanker then..?

Exactly.

Police are dumb as hell when it comes to imports. You very rarely find one that knows what they are talking about.

No BOV sighted = No defect.

Thanks,

Abu

Till you get to the EPA.

Then its no BOV sighted = rego suspended/car undriveable.

I do hear your point :( and agree in part

but why do drifters use it?isnt it ment to spool up faster on shifts for D1??

and why do rally cars use it?

I gues the motor is healthier with it plumbed back but is it more performance without?(on quickshifts)

and running no BOV at all is there alot of turbo LAG when changing gears?

Using race cars that rebuild turbos often, run better fuels and are tuned in specific ways... Are not good examples.

not advocating either way...but ive had atmo bovs on both turbo'd cars ive owned and never any dramas with backfiring/afm signals going messy. both cars had powerfcs. Yet some people seem to have heaps of dramas with such setups.

having std plumbacks would be ideal for all the obvious reasons, but whether its enough when your start running higher amounts of boost or increased airflow that its big enough to bleed it all off without still choofing and slowing down the turbo. I guess you could always run a wastegate instead and plumb it back into the intake...that would work pretty good.

Hi fellas,

Got a question for you guys...i run a gtr plumback on my gtst but when running anything over 15psi the bov doesn't vent quickly enough and i get a fair amount of flutter at full boost...with 18psi on the strip its worse...now i know a slight bit of flutter is ok for daily driving or even on the strip but at a track day i have coming up i'm not so sure...would it be advisable to get a atmo bov for my track outings so that the excess pressure is vented fully? Cheers...

    • He obviously had his reason for flipping you off. I wonder what it was...
    • Thats why I stay far, far away from Eastwood. only go there if I wanna eat Korean food 
    • I have to agree like, yesterday, I was driving down the warringah freeway towards the bridge when this jackass driving a beaten up Honda civic cut me off so suddenly it made me almost yank the wheel to avoid him hitting my car. Honestly and he had the NERVE to flip me off (or some other gesture Idk). Im a calm guy, but really some people just dont deserve to have a license, let alone be allowed to drive on densely populated roads/highways. If youre gonna cut through lanes at least use the damn turn signal
    • HPA do an interesting video on tuning, and Adrian shows on the dyno, moving from 10:1 to 12:1 (And I think even 13:1) and the power moves SFA. However, a couple of degrees of timing has a HUGE impact. Exhaust side of things will more be the length of the exhaust and how many bends and turns you have. The straighter you can keep it, the better. By a lot. Oh, and getting the diameter right. Bigger isn't always better. Going to big can actually lose you power.
    • I have to say, most people I see on the road fit the bill of atrocious drivers. Whether they be cowboys in their dual cabs, bogans in the Commodores, or the soccer mums. Pretty much most people on the road put zero freaking thought into driving. Barely look further up the road then the end of their bonnet, and have never even thought about how catastrophically wrong shit can go, by doing what they all deem as normal driving. Especially their late braking, racing to stopped lights, and sitting half a foot off the bumper of the car in front at 110km/h. Wanna know what's even better? By the time their kids get to be old enough to learn to drive, they've already got in the back of their brain what is normal driving, how annoyed you're allowed to get at people etc, and then their parents who actually have zero freaking skill at driving (Even though they constantly say "I've been driving for 20 years and never had an accident!") teach the little twerps how to drive, or should I say, how to make a car move. Literally watched a parent teach their L Plater, on a 4 lane freeway, that you just slam the brakes on, and push your way over, even with a B Double bearing down on you, and that's how you should drive, rather then, just keep going to the next exit. Same shit happens all the time for side streets etc, watching numpties pull dumb shit turns pushing across 3 lanes of traffic, rather than just go up the road another 30 seconds, and take the next turn that'll get you to the same location... Oh, and the damn right lane bandits. Or the retards driving along with their headphones in, and can't hear the ambulance or fire truck right up their ass about to run them over...   Pretty much, people drive on the road, like ego centric f**ks, and don't actually think how dumb shit their driving is, how it could easily kill them or someone else in a split second, or at the very least, how they're driving is contributing to all the shit they're bitching about on the road, like shitty congestion!
