compression surge is not healthy unless u live in vic and drive a VL ? and go to bell st maccers

stock plumb back bov ftw!

LOLLz

but yeh,,stok bov's are shyt,,get a stocky r33 gtr one

You may wind up stalling it everytime you pull up at a roundabout or lights... but go for it.. i thought it was awesome fun when i first tried it... and refitting it costs nothing...

dunno if it will root ur turbo though after prolonged use...

??

I've found a stock BOV with the internal bleed hole made 50% smaller gives a great comprimise between sound and surge. Blocking it completely, surges too much in higher gears on the highway and makes tons of noise. Also try getting a pod, makes much more sound.

Yes it will after a while and you will get increased lag.

Correct, but if you have a bov set to loose then it can also cause stalling. If you have a bov and tighten the spring in it then it will only open on high pressure, so you can get flutter with only a small amount of boost. savvy?

bro, jus get an fmic. after i put one on my car it made a flutter on high boost..nothin special but makes for some funny times

If you don't have a fmic, or at less a highflow side mount and you have a t04e then you're crazy.

I was told that it will cause turbo damage over a period of time.

thanks boys thats awsome but i love that massive flutter sound i might look into it a bit more and get back to ya .

also without the bov . dose it matter that its externaly gated ?

if you no what i mean ?

cheers

Then don't use one, but it will cause damage over time. As for the BOV being externally gated....are you talking about the BOV or wastegate?? If you have a BOV venting to atmosphere then yes it is illegal. You can have an external gated turbo, which has a wastegate on exhaust manifold, to be legal that has to be plumbed back into your exhaust system further down.

yes.

I don't think you can win either way, best going with what drives you least crazy listening to over and over again.

I hear ya rob. I've been ''dosing'' for about 18months, and my mechanic has aswell for YONKS, with absolutely NO damage. So the whole argument about its 'fulleybadforurturbo'is BS.

I switch between bov and dosing. It just gets boring :P .

sorry about that i ment that the turbo is externialy gated and why is it that if you run a bov into atomo , its illegal ?

Anything that vents gases into the atmosphere is illegal.

Wategates are only legal if they plumb back into your exhaust (if it doesnt plumb back its called a screamer pipe and that makes it illegal)

Same goes for bov, If it is plumbed back into your pipe work its legal (if it doesnt plumb back into your pipe work and just releasles into the atmosphere it illegal)

Does that make sense ? ? ?

    • Nismo 300km/h speedo for R33 gtst in GTR cluster.
    • Has anybody had their wheels refurbished? I reckon it's likely bloody expensive. Even a sand blasting quote for my 17s was 200-300 per wheel! The E39 wheels are basic BMW M Sport (or M Tech at the time.) they have slight rash and some have signs of bad repair in the past on the lips. The main issue is that they've become really off coloured.  I think it will be too much as this is definitely (supposed to be) a budget resto. I've been looking at others for sale but they all have some minor damage and colour issues.  In the end I think I'll just need to sand blast them myself and do a respray.  
    • Trying to figure out which nismo cluster i have. All the ones i see on the internet, the speedo goes up to 320kph and the revs 11k, with the nismo logo being on the rev gauge only. But on my one, the speedo goes up to 300 and says nismo, while the revs only go upto 10k and no nismo logo Dunno how to embed pics into a post so ill attach pic of my cluster and generic google search for reference Is what i have genuine?
