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

lol nah man to much heat soak. as from taking the plumb back line off and blocking it. i want a BOV thats plump back but makes a little noise to.

is that gonna be possiable?

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!

ash, does ur k&n make a high pitch whistle?

mine did

nah it dosnt man. since i got the dump pipe and high flow cat installed i can hear the turbo spool just a lil but no noise what so ever from the filter.

lol i dont mind the sound from the exhaust and motor im getting now but just a lil psshhh would be could also once in a while lol

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.

    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.  
    • No, you're wrong, and you've always been wrong about this. The Nismo has 2 sets of openings. One is a real 2-way, and the other is a 1-way. There is no 1.5-way possible with the ramps that they offer. A real 1.5-way does exist. That Cusco stuff I posted is a prime example. If the forward drive ramps are, say 55°, and the overrun ramps are, say, 30°, then you will get about half as much LSD effect on overrun than you do on drive. It is real, it realy works. OK, you're slightly right. The Nismo has 55° and 45° ramps on the 2-way, so it does offer less LSD effect on overrun. But, I think that just means that they've (probably) sensibly established that you do not want actually equal LSD effect on overrun. You just want "quite a lot, but not quite as much as the drive LSD effect".
    • Just wanted to unearth this and post my baby with the new front ❤️😝 Took her to my wedding rehearsal today. Next up is getting wide skirts (after wedding)
