hey thanks bumblebee, ive just got the car back, as i said to the mechanic leave it standard, im not a loud 'BOV, external wasegate, loud exhaust' kinda person, but this is the set up he gave me including all the custom polished inlet piping (which i admit looks amazing)

ive just spent close to $23k, and i dont want to spend anymore, as long as the shuffle isnt wrecking the engine i can live with it, but i will go back to stock BOV

im just a bit more concerned about engine light coming on when full boost hits, can anyone help me with this, as i said i have the new LINK G4, and my mechanic said not to worry bout the light because the LINK overrides this?????? im just a lil worried? would it be a dumb idea to instal a knock sensor? i live about 500k away from my mechanic so i cant get back to him for a while but he insists its ok?

just been reading what 'dirt garage' said (sorry forgot your name:) and he mentions that the timing will fix it?

when i started these mods about 1 year ago didnt know anything about modding these cars, so went on my mechanics advice, so please no lectures

my mechanic is 550km away so any help would be great on the noises

cheers

If your mechanic lives that far away, you might as well just come with your GTR on the ferry to Melbourne, and get it tuned correctly by Ben.

I would doubt highly that the HKS piping is inferior to the stock set up. So many GTR's world wide have Trust or HKS aftermarket piping.

hello

anyone heard of some kind of device/restrictor you put on your manifold that supressors the shuffle noise, some kind of pipe with a box, appranetly honda v techs have it to dampen there inlet noise?

[Bumblebee]

most cars have a resonator box... but its part of the stock air box... u remove the stock air box and it makes the other box useless because theyre generally connected to the stock air box.. cant say ive seen one that wasnt connected to the stock box

We've told u how to fix it dude.. there are no short cuts

stock piping + stock bovs. put ur stock bovs on and see how that goes

if that doesnt work then either live with it, or go stock piping

hey the ticking noise ur talking about when boost comes on is probly the boost controller, mine did this

check to see if the boost controller is mounted with rubber or foam underneath (between it and the engine bay)

the solenoid tix rapidly to control boost which is what i think is making the noise, so put something inbetween if there isnt something there already

cheers

going back to stock will help.

ben explained to me that the reason by the stock bovs r the best ones for the job is because they are one of the few bovs that actually stay open under light throttle which apparently help to minimise shuffling

hey, the reason why he changed BOV was because they couldnt hold on higher boost (18lbs) which i didnt think was that much boost to start leaking, is that maybe cause they had done 170k's?, would replacing them with brand new stock ones be able to hold the higher boost? what kind of power, or boost preasure can the stock ones hold?

cheers for advice......
