Hey guys I got a 96 S2 Gtst

Just got a Turbosmart supersonic bov and adapter and all was going good for a couple days...

Then just tonight i gave it a few revs standing still n noticed to the revs droped a lil bit lower than usaul then sometimes when i take off then netrual it till i stop it stalls? I have played around with the tension of the Bov as it says to do so but cant seem to find the right spot for it. I dont understand why it doing it now, was ok last couple of days, any thoughts?

Thanks

it happened to me when i got my turbosmart type 2 veeport blowoff valve.

no matter how hard you get the tension it will keep stalling.

if you have a stock computer,then thats the reason it stalls cause the bov vents and the computer is only tuned for the stock bov which re-circulates it.

i ended up putting my stock one back on and no more stalling or you could get a good ecu $1500 and get it tuned for it.

I dont know if you want to stall in the middle of an intersection with a huge semi-trailer heading straight towards you...

Or on a freeway...

Is ur life worth a little "vroom choo?"

One of our family friend died because of that (in his brand new manual Audi, left his wife and children....)

It only stalls when i stop sharply, after ive bin driving for a long time. eg, i went out for a spin last night for a couple hours, all goin good.. then went for sum maccas, pulled into drive thru braked put foot on clutch then stall. then had a lil trouble wif idle, then when back on road again all good.

You do point out a good note thought.

Thats no good jimmytim, sorry to hear that.

All is good now, I made a new gasket for the BOV and sealed it with some gasket goo also, and thorughly cleaned out throtle body etc. Running better than ever now :) Iv tried so hard to make it stall but all is good, and no idle troubles.

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
