BOVs won't effect performance or anything.. unless ur running high boost and the stock one's leaking

you dont have to retune your car

you can use dec air so it doesnt stall at the lights, but you have to be careful because that can effect the cold start too... it happened to me

check your cold start airflow using the safc and set it at that.. but even with that the car still stalls...

or just change your driving style, don't drop to neutral and roll to the lights, only drop to neutral just before the car's about to come to a stop, then this way it won't stall

/\ -- for post above..stalling issues are common with ATMOS bov's due to the loss of air quickly when slowing down eg to lights when in neutral etc or i have even heard of it when people drive slow between gears. it tends to happen under load.

" or just change your driving style, don't drop to neutral and roll to the lights, only drop to neutral just before the car's about to come to a stop, then this way it won't stall " i run an ATMOS HKS ssq bov n have never had this problem, it due to the tention of the bov.

there are stalling issues after installing the ssqv.

Only thing that is different is the backfire and the wanker noise :D

thanks guys! :O

sorry guys....

dammit. gotta proof read b4 posting....

i do not have stalling issues.

just backfires and the wanker noise. LOL

i am so sorry for confusing u all.

SORRY!

    • Sorry, are coilovers ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in NSW? They aren't in Vic, as long as they retain 70% of stock travel and the car is above 100mm off the ground. Does NSW actually have a law making coilovers actually illegal? RWC/Blue Slip/Engineering people not knowing the actual f**king laws boils my blood. Demand them to point to the documentation that states a coilover is illegal. (it may exist in NSW )
    • But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?
    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
