RGR33 Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Hi all, I have just installed a HKS SSQ BOV (lots of acronyms here haha) and have only one question... the plumb back piping from the stock BOV is kind of just sitting there.. should i be doing something with this? THe car is a series 1 R33 Gts-t. Thanks for your help!

The Mafia Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 You should put that end into the stock blow off valve. How much extra horsepower do you think you'll get with this device?

GeeTR Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 the plumb back piping from the stock BOV is kind of just sitting there.. should i be doing something with this? Just chock it up and fasten with a hose clamp. You can find blanking plugs, or just use some correctly sized dowel.

Thanks for that mate, helped a lot to get some acual advice. The only problem with forums is the population of self-proclaimers who try to thrust their opinion on people who really dont want it!

R31Nismoid Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 I can understand The Mafia's pain, when there are almost weekly "why is my car stalling" threads... (which is caused by ATMO BOV's) It stands to reason in some cases But ye, just block it up if you must have ATMO. And pray you dont have stalling and other issues Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/230689-what-to-do-with-plumb-back-bov-piping/#findComment-4059186 Share on other sites More sharing options...
daisu Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 (edited) Coke bottle lid, or any other soft drink bottle lid is a perfect fit put a hose clamp on it for good measure.

GTScotT Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 i cut the top of a coke bottle, so it had some more thicker plastic to clamp into with the still on, didnt have any stalling issues, just got sick of the car nose diving down when i slightly changed throttle positions so i put the stock one back on and im loving it +1 stock bov Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/230689-what-to-do-with-plumb-back-bov-piping/#findComment-4059393 Share on other sites More sharing options...
RGR33 Posted August 6, 2008 Author Share Posted August 6, 2008 Hey guys, well i understand a bit more now about mafia's position. Thanks for the advice- a coke lid is an awesome idea haha. Doubles as a great pipe cap and to prove my undying trust for the coke brand I will be interchanging the stocko and the atmospheric- i just love the sound of the HKS atmo BOV. When i start doing track stuff in the near future i will be putting the stocko back on. only a 10 minute venture so not the end of the world.

-Dukes- Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Q for the mafia, My stock bov makes a high pitch sqealy rubber fart noise at boost, would it be worth getting an aftermarket plumbback BOV? I don't like atmo's just that "poofter mating call" noise gives me the shits.

The Bogan Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Plumb back your after market if you use it on the steet or the cops will own you like they did me, if you use it for track, fill your boots.
