agreed it is 50/50 whoever u talk to so personal prefrence is the choice in the end.I took off a gfb ppssshhht bov on my 96 180 for flutter and at 1 bar evryday 4 4 years it didnt kill the turbo...

I have a question to any gurus out there if can help,

I just bought a 32 4dr and it is a very good tuned street car and runs a upgraded turbo and tuned power fc with hand controller.My question is will blocking up the standard bov (previous owner kept it not aftermarket 1) "throw out" somehow or interfere with the power fc or not..

Cheers :thumbsup:

all it will do is cause is over fuelling on changes. Some times enough to try and stall when puttering around shops tho.

My Ceffy has a wicked dose I love hard intake pipes with no bov. Bovs are gay leave them to rice boys with there shopping list.

Vls are by far the dose kings though. Mine fluttered hard!

way to bring up a post thats a year old.

i can say, when i passed pits i stuck a rock between the vacum line to my hks bov stopped making noise and worked a treat to pass pits, and i didnt notice any difference apart from gay squeekyness gone.

also my mate dropped 10g's at C-RED gt3540, 6boost mani, 800cc, haltech, etc etc on his r32 rb25 and they told him not to run a bov.. tho he is running a nice big plummed back gate.

.. 400awhp (has the smaller gt3540 rear housing)

    • Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.
    • Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent. 
    • Out of curiosity, how do officials determine what the OEM ride height and suspension specs are? Do they have a book of truth? I'd think that would be quite obscure knowledge for random JDM cars.
    • This is the check list they sign off on. This implies that adjustable coilovers of the type we're referring to are not a "Variable Ride Height" system. This very much is in the ethos of "I can change the height while moving/while parked without pulling wheels off the car and mechanically doing so"
    • Just an update  ... Put the cat back on no issues with the car running wise ... maybe alittle longer to spoil up the turbo. Still running rich but waiting for my tuner to come back into town to retify the situation. WOT runs fine with the cat.
