stock bovs are rubbish, leaking heaps of shit, done a trip 2 brissy other weekend, running stock bov, f**kin heap of shit leaking the whole time on light throttle could hear it just in vacum, so fkn annoying

That information is WAY off..

hmmmmmmm... just thinking y u would think a piece of machinery that has been moving up and down billions of times could never break down, loose its seal...

it makes sense tho. u love dose pipes. so how could u know.

the GFB Stealth-FX is either a full atmo or plumb-back bov, fits the gtst engine no probs

you can adjust it to say 10% atmo and 90% plumb-back

I have one, it is near new and I will sell it soon (repaired the stnd bov)

I run it on my auto rb25det on full plumb-back and it sounds, well, not too bad.

never stalled the engine with it on either, but when you take the foot off the accelerator you can hear the reveberation from the released air hitting between the turbo and the afm.

Nice theory.

and it's good to see that you're brain is at least trying to work.

do me a favour.

ask the brain of yours this question, and then type up the dribble that it gives you.

ready?

"How does a blow off valve work?"

lets hear it?

ok..

I'll get you started.

bov has a piston in it.

this piston stays closed, then opens to let the air in the intake out.

it also has a small vacuum line entry point.

bov is placed on the Turbo side of the throttle body.

the vacuum line to the bov gets it's reading from the PLENUM side of the throttle body.

now you take over and explain how it all works.

No googling now.

wish i had the last 3 minutes of my life back.

leave the standard one on.

do a search man..

aparently it is WELL documented that the stock ones are shit and that a good AEM (which is a UNIVERSALLY USED Acronym of rAftermarket Equipment Manufacturer - don't you know anything) bovs are the way to go..

and I can give you your 3 minutes back if you like.

I can travel back in time and take you with me if you like..

I saw a little asian guy do it by shutting his eyes and trying really hard to fart.. then pop.. he disapears and re-apears in the another time..

you want in?

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
