ive never done it i should clarify but i think u just open the stock bov and block it off..

prepare yourself for a lot of dead pidgeon posts though

are u running a pod filter? if not its not gonna sound that great anyway, not to mention your spool time will be slower

go on google, you will find it, esspecially on vl turbo forums..

but the easiest way to do it. is unbolt your blow off valve, get that gasket and trace it onto a drink can then cut it out, then bolt up your blow off valve back to how it was.. only put that small bit of tin between the gasket and the blow off valve.. thats the way i done it, and occasioanly when i get bored i change it around.

Yeah I did this many many moons ago. Good ol Coke can gasket, along with upgraded intercooler and pod filter.

Good for giggles for a week or 2. Got old pretty quick though. Didn't like the stalling problems but did like the pops and gurgled it gave up when backing off.

I've got an adjustable turbosmart BOV plumbed back...

with the standard turbo it sounded ok... but when i started pumping 19psi through the piping it went crazy

especially on the motorways... 5th gear... gave the throttle a little tap then back off and all you hear is... tsu tsu tsu tsu tsu tsu hahaha

but yeh... getting over it a bit... might loosen the BOV to just get a big old whoosh!

i did this to my car.. =) when i got an aftermarket BOV. i pulled it appart and added a spacer inbetween the spring and piston to make the spring tension harder. so on really hi boot it would open and on low boost it would flutter! =)

Do it...... coke can gasket (in my case, carlton mid can gasket :cheers: )

I put it in for a week or two then take it out when I get sick of the lag.

I'll probably put it back in again soon :D

I'm also considering taking my turbosmart plumb back apart and adding a space saver, just not sure if I can bring myself to do actually pull it apart. It seems kinda hard...

Here is a way you can do it and avoid all of the stalling issues.

What you really need is a door hinge, some blutack, rubber bands and an icecream container...oh and a mirror...

1. Screw (or blutack) the hinge to the cowling around your cooling fan...cut a peice of the icecream container, preferably an L-shape and blutack it to the other side of the hinge..Put the rest of the blutack on the end of the l-shape..

2. Then get the rubber bands and place them between the hinge and your fully hectik sick oil filler cap...(the one thats make an extra 38rwkw)...

3. Go for a drive and adjust the rubber bands so that when you back off the throttle, the L-shaped plastic swings into the fan...

4. Once you have made all of the appropriate adjustments and have it fluttering just right, pull over, pull out the mirror and look in it. You will be looking at yet another face that has reduced Skylines to levels of riceness that we commonly see today....

I'm a solutions man...Let me know what you think...

    • 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.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
