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?

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

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

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

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.

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.

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? :|

I think The Mafia was once molested as a child by an atmo bov or something :teehee: 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! :)

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.

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
