when i first got my car i blocked off my valve and was running sweet for about 3 months, then i changed over my spark plugs then it started to stall sometimes and sometimes when the revs dropped from really high to idle. I just made it out to be a tuning issue but when i put new turbo and engine mods on and it stalls without fail every time if you don't keep fairly high revs. The guys that are tuning it are telling me that i can't block of my blow off and that i have to run it in order to stop the problem, but i don't want to do that. Pretty much everyone i know with a turbo has blocked theirs off, just wondering what could be causing mine to stall when i block mine?? i got an rb25 by the way.

ahahah classic thread with great responses.

The hektic flutterz is awesome bro i just had to get a new turbo cause my old one died mysteriously...wonder what could have done that.

hhhmmm i wonder why they put a bov on from factory??!!? :P

This has been posted plenty of times - you should search the forums before posting.

Your car has an AFM. Your tuner was correct in stating that you can't do it if you want to stop the problem. Once the air has been read through the AFM and you release the throttle thereby closing the butterfly, the air returns down the intake pipe trying to find the BOV and recirculate. That is what it should do standard.

But you have blocked the BOV so the air goes back out the turbo the wrong way (or at least attempt to) and you get a stiffy as you flutter past teh laideeez and bro's (probably just the bro's) at maccas.

Problem is, your ECU has read the air going into the motor, but it hasn't and it dumps fuel in to keep the AFR correct. Thus flooding your motor with fuel and stalling.

There are numerous way's to get teh flutters without stalling, smartest one being geting a new ECU that runs a MAP sensor instead of an AFM. But since you probably wont...........you deserve the crap that you already have and will continue to get on this subject.

Good Day Sir!

Agreed, Air Flow Meter (AFM) is reading plenty of air going into the motor, adds fuel to mix, none of that air is making it to the motor, floods the motor...

How is your fuel consumption?

Sorry for the attacks, but it happens every time... you should have a done a search :P

Hope this does help.

ZOMG BRO! i luv da full hektik sik dose uleh!

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
