yep thats what ive done =]

lol i just looked at ur user name and i had to look at it 3 times coz i thought it said c*cksmoker. dont take that the wrong way, im actually a fan of dosing (i drive a VL...)

im actually a fan of dosing (i drive a VL...)

below your avatar and name it says you have an N/A vl? :D

didnt realise you could doooossse!!! in a N/A?

I'm confused, if it measures the air twice, it would put more fuel in and run rich for a second and the typical atmo bov pop would be seen. Which is what happens. My car has not stalled once and appears to be getting better performance as there seems to be a little less lag.

I'm also confused about what people have against this noise. I will admit, I have left the standard airbox on but have taken the snorkel of so the noise is muffled but still is quite audible.

Is it because skylines are seen to be more classy than vl turbo's and should therefore go about being a performance car quietly?

Fair enough, then what is everyone's though of a gtr going around dosing its head off, becuase I was looking at getting a pod setup.

I have also thought of only blocking one of my bov's, this seems like a good idea as less air is being wasted to the atmo, yet less air is being sent back to the turbo's so the bearings will be less stressed. Win Win I think.

And yes I have though af reinstating a plumb back setup.........but where's the fun in that!

why the hell is that flutter so high pitched? like a gay canary?

i no likie. sounds weak and girly, like a barina with frangipani's on the rear window :D

my car does some sort of flutter, when lifting off the throttle quickly. it certainly wasnt by design or intention. but its far less irritating than that. much quiter. and alot deeper. more purposeful sounding.

(aftermarket plumbed bov set to medium spring setting. fmic. pod)

Had atmo BOV on my lancer when I was 18. Had a 4G61T engine. I thought I was cool. Times changed. Dose is not cool uleh. Now my 2 stock valves make enough noise for me. Im more interested in gettin my turbo spool as loud as possible. Thinkin a big single snail

dosing, LoL for people who take 5minutes to change gears and need something to fill in time.

ROFL thats about it, aint it.

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
