Been reading up on a few posts regarding bov's and so on, i posted a thread a little while back asking how to get that deep woosh sound, not that pissy pssshhhh sound... lol... i was told any atmo bov should do the trick, then told hks sequential, then some blitz one. Then i read another forum and they are talking about no bov = flutter... Apparently its all in the air filter you choose... IM CONFUSED!! can someone help me with this, if anyone knows what im talking about or can help me acheive this sound, please inform me as its starting to sh!t me off now...

PS this is the sound im trying to achieve, or very similar http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRR_aisRgPI...feature=related

GT30 with a big K & N pod & a blitz supersound bov - yeah that gives me a touch of flutter lol

I wouldn't suggest getting your car to make a sound like that, it was flutter that got me my yellow sticker! Wasn't even boosting :(

The tightness of the Bov of how u set it.. will make it flutter with the pod.... @ Low revs the the Bov will stay shut and not enough to open and sometimes all u will hear is the Pod.. on colder weather it will sound different...

What is Wastegate Chatter??? might be that... But i know on low Revs it will flutter and on high revs it will Whoosh and fully open. This is the way a BOV should function.

i am guessing that BOV is a greddy type R BOV, they are made for high HP and a lot of boost cars

my mates got a vl clais with an rb25.

he has a simalar sound.

i know he runs no bov and has just a filter.

what creates the sound out of the pod is the backpressure not very good for the turbo, any pod filter should do it.

i believe the sound is known as dosing so maybe search for that.

BOV's were invented for mum and dad's who want their cars to be quiet, no real racecar runs a bov, particularly an atmo.

That being said, I run one, there was a period of ~2 days where I didn't have one fitted and it sounded super ghey and I kept blowing cooler pipes. My current bov is pretty hard, flutters at low boost and easy throttle letoffs, full boost and a quick letoff and it opens properly.

As said above, you basicaly need to block off you're bov to achieve the ongoing flutter sound as it creates back pressure. Most bovs will create that sound blocked off, although you could experience boost leaks with some such as the stock one if it isnt blocked off properly.

ok well where the blow off valve is supposed to go, theres a mitsubishi part there, kinda looks like a waste gate but not... ive put on the hks mushroom type air filter also. It sucks pretty damn hard but still when i clutch it makes that annoying psshhhh sound. when i get the car back next week ill try to block off the mitsu part and see what happens... but i have a hks ssq lined up if i want it, but im not going to get it if i dont need it for this sound ya know... call me stupid but i reckon that sound im looking for sounds awesome!

PS OMFG, why would nissan put a mitsubishi part on a skyline, i mean, really!!

The stock BOV can be modified to flutter and not leak after 10psi.

All you need to do is remove the stock BOV and plug the small hole

next to main valve. Also Tomei has instructions on how to do this

mod.

Here's an American version of the stock BOV mod, but is adjustable -

    • Oof, I will forevermore have those shredded gears in mind whenever someone talks about showing mechanical sympathy towards their car. Thanks for the photos, fascinating stuff!
    • Curious to see how the SpeedTek stuff holds up
    • The holdups last year were drivetrain related. I had the car out right after getting the bearing issue resolved. Third launch and the car didn't move after releasing the clutch. It had sheared all the engagement teeth off the 1st gear.    Thankfully no other damage was done. I set an aftermarket gear beside an OEM gear and found that the engagement teeth on the OEM gear were much larger and better supported. Looking through my bin of spare transmission gears I found that there are two types of tooth on the OEM first gears - the larger tooth and the smaller tooth. It looks like most aftermarket gearset manufacturers base their design on the smaller tooth. OEM large tooth left - Speedtek, OS Giken, etc or OEM small tooth right Decided to give that larger engagement tooth a try. Pressed the ring off an OEM gear and sent it to a transmission manufacturer here in the States. They did their "faceplating" operation with my synchro ring on the Speedtek gear.   I reassembled it, took it back to the track and promptly destroyed the gear itself.  I'll rebuild this and use it as a spare - thankfully just first gear and the countershaft are damaged beyond repair. Definitely disheartening but my welded on engagement tooth ring held up!  Moved to Speedtek's dog engagement design as the gears appear to be much stronger. So far they have taken much more abuse at the track. Also scored a Stillway lockout from the Netherands for super cheap. It's for some other RB transmission so it took a bit of fabrication to fit but honestly a very easy job. I also had to heavily modify the gates as they were very different.   Then for some reason at the last test and tune a silicon coupler below the throttle blew off and took out the radiator and fan. Thankfully it was in the burnout box and not down track. This car is really beating me up - I still haven't made a pass in it. Ran it through the gears many times on the street but it keeps biting me at the track.  Currently in the process of replacing the radiator and remaking the throttle pipe to remove the coupler and use a cast 90 and a vband. I WILL get this thing down the track...
    • Covers most of the above points really. There's a few exceptions but most just see driving as an irritating but necessary task they must complete if they want to get anywhere on time. Also see it as a good time to show their awesome multi-tasking abilities on their mobile and/or doing their makeup.  
    • I don't believe I posted pictures of the second oil pump pickup I added so here they are. Data shows it gets oil pressure up to the relief pressure much earlier in the RPM. Is that important? Not likely... This was just another attempt to fix the bearing issues.   I also heavily opened up the inlet to the pump since it now had to flow oil from two pickups. I believe the diameter increased about 1/8".
