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!

Just chock it up and fasten with a hose clamp. You can find blanking plugs, or just use some correctly sized dowel.

Not really what i asked for help with... but i dont plan on getting any extra horsepower.

Thanks for the help :ermm:

You should put that end into the stock blow off valve.

How much extra horsepower do you think you'll get with this device?

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!

Cheers, appreciate it!

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 :thumbsup:

But ye, just block it up if you must have ATMO. And pray you dont have stalling and other issues :ermm:

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

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 :P

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.

Cheers all

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.

rofl - poofter mating call

I dunno, is your return line blocked? Do you still have the rubber intake pipe?

Rubber intake pipe, yes. Return should be clear.

I did how ever do the screw in the leak hole trick.

    • We have a huge update coming in the next few months, version 5 of Invision will be released. I'm holding off any changes until after this change as I'm not sure what features will be removed or introduced.
    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
