Atmo Bov Application

[long33]

ok ok im sorry another bov thread but ive searched and cant find an answer newhere, im puttin an atmospheric blow off valve in the position of the old one with an adaptor and just want to know what to do with the plumback line wen i install the new bov as it has no nipple for it only for the vac line. its a pretty big hose so... do i tape it up or connect it somewhere else or what?help!

[LiQuid IcE]

the metal pipe?

nothing, just leave it.

If you wan't you can cover it up and put a hose clamp around it

[long33]

its not metal just rubber hosea bit bigger than a vac hose, that comes out of the bov and back to the turbo(i think, cant see the end of it) maybe it does lead to metal pipe i cnt remember. i guess ill try just leaving it then i guess! wont do any damage or affect idle/afm?

[JAS-25T]

Block it off.

[GTR-32U]

when I had my skyline it had a plastic COke bottle lid with a hose clamp around it...worked ok..

[long33]

ahhh so thats where the coke lid theory comes from, herd all about this coke lid trick but never knew what it was about lol, may try that then!

[nzm033]

i got an exhaust shop to make a metal plug thingy and use a clamp so nothing goes in the plumb back line

[Strik3r]

anything to block it off. do not leave it open - that will cause you to have an air leak. have fun stalling

[MR 33]

If you got a turbosmart, they supply one. If not, go to repco and ask for some heater hose bungs. 3/4 inch i think, round 3 bucks each. Slap that over the metal return pipe.

Mine had that as well, worked perfectly, mine was even black so i didnt even realise what it was till i pulled it out.

Must block it off other wise you will be drawing in air that is not measured by the afm.

Gonna sound awsome isnt it, pull up to a set of lights next to a car full of girls that have noticed the bov noise and are watching you....... and then the car stalls BAAAAHAHAHAHAHA, have fun.

so did your old one break and you couldn't find another standard one, or did you just want to be fully sick uleh, and attract more unwanted attention of the cops, so they hate Skylines even more?

If you install a ATMO bov on a Air Flow Metered car, you're a complete idiot and don't understand how an engine works, and shouldn't be allowed to drive a turbocharged car.

Also, you didn't try to search, there is about 100 threads on this.

Sounds a bit harsh but its all true.

[RBwhatever]

He wants to get the awesome PPPTTTSSSCCHHHH so people turn around and say OMG he's got a turbo bro!!........OMG it stalled bro!!!!

ps. there's genuine reasons why comments like these and the one above are said. Use the search function and all will be revealed.

He did start this thread by asking if he should block off the bov return pipe, that says it all really.

[ztuned]

dickheads just jump in and flame when they see 'BOV' on the thread title and can't tell the difference between genuine question as oppose to "how to not make my car stall" threads

[The Mafia]

or idiots like yourself that don't understand why the car stalls in the first place?

[long33]

didnt mean to start a row guys jeez, just askin a question that wasnt ans in any of the 100's of threads.i wanted info before i took off the standard one and f,d up my car. but to the people that ans my question thank you, i got a turbo xs adaptor kit and yes indeed it came with a plug for the return pipe. put it on the car last night with my brother-in-law and went for a spin down the road and we pissed ourselves laughing the whole drive, had so much fun even with the bov as tight as it can go it sound funny. no stalling, hunting, nothing runs fine.

only prob is i want to loosen the bov to make more noise but wen i flick the boost up and plant it the top of the bov looks like its going to unscrew itself and pop off, only on 10psi. anyone know how to stop that?

How do you know that its unscrewing itself and going to pop off when you are in the car driving it? :|

[MR 33]

I think The Mafia was once molested as a child by an atmo bov or something Certainly has issues with them. I 'borrowed' my megasonic of my sis's wrx, my car never stalled once for over 6 months. It's only when idiots get cheapie ones with piss weak springs that have stalling problems. Though i will be going back to plum back purely for the reason i'm sick of defects!

[r33cruiser]

back on topic u whoring bastards (mafia trying to get his 200000c in).

what i did mate was cut off a bit of a broom handle, wack it in the hose, clamp it and bam your done.

and as for the stalling issue. this topic is not about that, as many cars do not experience those problem, me included.

i have no doubt now that this thread will now go for days about people spewing their garbage about vta bov's, MAFIA.

u will not win in pushing your beliefs on this bloke, let it go dude, get some work done eh.
