well i had the really cool sucking sound from the pod but got rid of that and wacked in a K&N panel filter and now its all too quite for me lol

so i was wondering before i go and spend money on a aftermarket bov

does any one here have an aftermarket bov not laying around not being used that i could possibly borrow for the weekend to see how it suits me??

also by installing a GTR BOV would there be any sound difference at all or not really???

thank you all

Im in rowville too. I have a 33 with a HKS SSQ BOV installed, so I dont have any problem catching up and taking you for a quick spin if you want to hear what its like. Kicks in very early, pretty high pitched sound.

PM me if youre interested.

PS: ill only be able to check forums while im at work so if you msg me after 5pm today then I wont get it till monday.

I think my cousin has a HKS SSQ BOV laying around because his engine is in pieces at the moment.

If you want to give it a shot I can borrow it off him for you, was going to put it on my car but not much of a BOV fan my self :dry:

Keep in mind though, SSQ is atmo, and the SSQ is fkn louuuuud!

Ummmm.......yer and how's that different from any other BOV? :ermm:

Hahaha!

As usual some uninformed "know-it-all" has to put in his 2c worth, but runs when asked to explain :)

Keep your bullshit to yourself

How about I speak for him and say that by not plumbing your BOV back you create what I would not call an "air leak" because it's still fine when on boost but you still release metered air if you are using an AFM. This means the car runs momentarily rich each time the BOV releases some air.

It's not rocket science, quite frankly I can't understand why people go out of their way to make their cars effectively run worse just for that wanker sound.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
