so do u just cut liek a square of a bit of can then do the bolts up and sandwich it in between?

good results?

its simple.

get any metal, cut it into the shape of the flange of the bov, drill 2 holes for the bolts. then put it between the bov and intake pipe.

All it does is stop the bov from venting the air back into the intake pipe, so yes you will get good results

i love sau, a question is ask then people feel the need to add their 2 cents about why they think its gay or similar.

it takes less effort to not post or read the topic

1 - It is gay.

2 - If it was meant to sound like that, they would.

3 - If anything, like I said it slows the turbo down unnecessarily & could cause damage to it, so why would you want to do that.

4 - It is gay.

For the record my car has wicked turbo flutter, but that's due to the size of the damn thing & possibly a crappy bov that will be getting replaced soon once I find a decent replacement. That sort of flutter sounds good, not stock turbo spec flutter that sounds like sin.

For f**ks sake man....

Yes you can put a piece of aluminium can in between the flange connection if you want, so that the air returns back through the turbo just to create a bit of noise.

I can also drive my car off a cliff if I wanted to, but it doesn't make it a good idea. That's my point, I don't give a f**k what you do to your car, but I'd like people to show just a bit of common sense if they are thinking about doing something with a negative impact.

there is no proof that blocking off a bov or running no bov causing damage to the turbo or engine

gazza750; i answer his question, not very hard

so flutter is gay... EXCEPT if its YOUR bigger turbo? :laugh:

and if its slowing the turbo down, and damaging it like you claim, why do you let yours do it? :closedeyes:

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
