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:

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.
