New Bov Troubles

[Krimz]

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.

Thanks for that, is it ok if i leave it on? will it cause any harm?

The only problems you'll suffer from is constant stalling and probably a stuffed cat from over fuelling.

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.

Is ur car auto or manual?

[Krimz]

Manual all the way! Why you ask?

My auto used to stall and surge with bov.

Oh I see, maybe same thing i did could fix it? Do you still have the auto?

Yeah i do but not interested in the bov noises anymore I much rather keep it cheap, easy and reliable.
