yep now where getting somewhere

some of lambos questions answered

Does those BOV that vent excess air when the throttle is shut affect the air fuel ratio?

Yes because the ecu has accounted for that air as being already in the engine

Since the throttle is shut the air getting into the engine should be the same even without the BOV.

No because the would get in when the throttle is re opened and the throttle is never completely closed the motor needs air to burn the fuel

Isn't the job of the BOV is to pretect the intake turbine from blow back pressure from shutting the throttle abruptly.

Yes and to protect the turbo from spinning backwards in the case of a backfire

Can we fix the Bov so that it comes before the AFM?

Is it even possible?

No the ecu would read the air eneering the engine twice causing a very over rich state

I do not understand how the return BOV works. If it return the excess air back into the intake doesn't it defeat the purpose of having a bov to relief the back pressure from sudden shut of the throttle?

It simply removes the pressure between the throttle butterfly and the turbo outlet on the compressor side of the turbo by putting that pressure on the inlet side between the turbo and the afm

Anyone knows about those return BOV that vent gas back? and the above post also

lambo I’m not quite sure what you mean by this question

Lambo short of replacing the ecu the only fix for the problem is by adjusting the air bypass valve at the back of the inlet as I stated in my post on the first page.

AFM sux? So, you get your fuel for free then? I like AFM's. If you need more power than the one you're using can handle, just get a bigger/better one with more resolution. MAP will almost always use more fuel than AFM with everything else equal.

yeah.... AFM's are the most accurate way of measuring, so youdo get better fuel economy, and there are some cars with good horse power still using AFM's.... I have MAP, and it's not bad, a bit rougher than the AFM, but it's all good :rolleyes:

    • 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
